Hike to Børesteinen, Luster

Børesteinen - One of the most beautiful viewpoints over the Lustrafjord

Trip from Luster center and up to Børesteinen. One of the most beautiful viewpoints over the Lustrafjord and the village of Luster. The trip goes via the old road up to the mountain farm Berge, and continues on a path up to almost 1000 masl. Demanding trip, with a continuous uphill all the way. A bit windy on the top, so children should be supervised. There may be snow left on the east-facing slopes until the end of June. Normal walking time is approx. 4h turn/return
