This guided hiking tour takes you on an energetic, 8-hour hike from Balestrand to the summit of Mt. Raudmelen. The well-maintained, sometimes steep, dirt path takes you through a birch forest and over bogs.&nbsp;Once through the forest, the trail opens up to showcase several stunning fjord arms. The trail becomes steeper here, but much of it is on stone steps made by Nepali sherpas. At the summit there is a shelter and plenty of time to relax and take photos.This mountain is known for its weather, so hikers are encouraged to bring layers and a rain jacket, as well as plenty of water. There is a small public cabin at the top too.
