- Round trip
Long trail that takes you troug some really nice landscape with wide views in all direction. The mountain rage towards Bossnuten has many small valleys and stony cliffs that create some amazing scenery. Trials are hard to follow, and unmarked. I would recommend to bring a good map and prepare well for this route in advance. After you’ve passed bossnuten you have a long flat stretch over open plains all the way to Sansetvatn. Here the trail get narrow and very wet. High ferns and bushes can make it hard to run and keep track with the trail. To the east you’ll see the range you’ve past over earlier.
When you reach the end of the lake you undergrowth thickens again and they trail nearly disapears, hang in there it only lasts about 1 km. (resists the temptations of the larger trails that you cross that go to the dam) You’ll hit a little larger trail trough some beautiful lanes of birch that guides you back to Sudbø.
Mainly small unmarked trails and sheep paths until Bossnuten. Slightly better path from Bossnuten to Store Grasfjelltjønn. Afther that its back to sheeptrails allong Sandsetvatn. Just 2 signpost along the route. one pointing to Grasfjelltjønn and a second to Sandsetvatn. No other markings.
Don’t follow the signs saying Lifjellvegen when running up the gravel road
Nice narrow trail to run. Sometimes the high bushes make you slow down. First part of the path down from Bossnuten is a little steep and eroded, make sure your prepared to slide on some loose racks. PS. The trail get very wet after you passed the sign into Grasfjelltjønn. Along Sandsetvatn it’s pretty much marshes & a stream from time to time.
- I think you could do a shorter route back to Sudbø after Bossnuten if you go around Vesle bossnuten and pass vesle Valatjønni & Valetjønni. I did see some small trails there. but they are unmarked.
- Go down to Bosbøen after you’ve passed Bossnuten, follow the road along Møsvatn south. at the end of the lake there is a marked trail called Lifjellvegen that takes you back to Sudbø.
Starts in a little valley with some farm grounds and a nice river. Further up the valley get steeper with some forest but it quickly opens up to a typical Norewgian mountain area. Lots of sharp small rocky peaks & tiny enclosed valleys on the range from Lifjell to Bossnuten. I’ve always seen lots of birds along this route. They tend to pop up out of the undergrowth as you get too close and give you a big scare.
