Join me on another mountain top hike
Today I'm taking you to the top of Lifjell mountain where we have the TV & Radio Transmitter and a radar.
But in ancient times there was a big grumpy troll at Lifjell. The troll was very upset about the construction of churches and other God worshipping in the area. One day it became so angry that it threw huge boulders against Stavanger and Hommersåk. One of the boulders was close to hitting the old 10th-century cathedral in Stavanger, and made a hole in the ground that later became Breidavatnet. Another stone, the Trollstone, lies today near the Riska Old Church in Hommersåk.
Parked my car next to Kolonialen Cafè where this info sign is. Open the original image and zoom inn to see all the different hiking trails you can choose from here.

Stavanger Turistforening have done a great job putting up signs all along the trails. We are taking the trail to Dalevatn lake and from there up to Lifjell
