Ole Slaatta’s road up / Rudolf Olsen’s road down.
Pilvegen is no less than a gem that winds itself
up to the top of Geilohovda (1,080 m. elevation).
The trail is well-marked and the sign from the
west side of the old Taubane lift building. It
follows an old trail upwards until it meets the
road to Geilo Panorama apartments. Just before
the sloping road, there are some big rocks in the
middle of the trail. These could just as well be
removed. There is a road that continues on to
continues along the Eima until the river turns
westward and the trail continues northward
toward the Hallingskarvet mountains until
it meets Prestholtvegen road, approximately
500 meters before Prestholtseter.

7. Vestlia – Hakkesetstølen – Birgit-
hovda – towards Tuftebrua – Vestlia
5. Tuftelia – along Eima – Prestholt –
towards Urundberget – Tuftelia
The trail starts from the parking lot west of
Tuftelia (see the sign toward the east outskirt
of the lot). Starts with a gravel road up to the
railroad track. Then the trail goes steeply up a
birch hillside. Turn left at the trail crossing by
the campfire area. The trail winds westward
in easy terrain, rounds Fjellstølhovda and
arrives at the Eima, where the river throws
itself into a cascading waterfall. The trail
the yard of the apartments and then meets the
trail again at the edge of the birch woods. Here
stands the first yellow bench. There are many
such benches that have been set out at the best
viewpoints. Nice benches, but a little weathered.
Follow the signs for Ole Slaatta’s road upward
and Rudolf Olsen’s road down again. That
makes for a nice round.
Med stolheisen opp fra Vestlia,
starter turen allerede på 1052moh.
(Utenom stolheisens åpningstider
kan en følge Pariserløypa opp.)
8. Skurdalsåsen –
Round
From the parking lot on the other side of the
road of Kikut Fjellstue, follow the cabin road
in to the Rundetjørn pond (sportfishing per-
mitted). The trail continues eastward to the
trail crossing before Bruslettstølen.
Alternativtely, park in the center of Geilo,
walk over the bridge toward Vestlia, follow
Stølsvegen road passing the horse center
until the trail takes off to the right (marked
with Bruslettstølen). The round at Skurdalså-
sen is an easy, nice round just over 1,000 msl.
It is recommended to go from Bruslettstølen
toward Skurdalen (Skurdalsstølane). The trail
turns toward the east and meets the old trail,
«Gamle Skurdalsvegen.» This trail is cultural
heritage in its own right and a joy to hike!
Try a little detour up to the «Soria Moria»
cabin by Leirtjørn pond. An idyllic place with
a 360-degree view! By the mountain farming
hamlet by Nybu, the trail takes off westward
where it generally follows the winter route
3.5 km back to Bruslettstølen.

Følg stien sørover til Hakkesets-
tølen. Fin og tørr sti, men ganske
mye stein så det er lurt å bruke
fjellstøvler.
Fra Hakkesetstølen snur stien vest-
over forbi Store Hakkesettjørn og
Grodalstjørnan. Her er sportsfiske
tillatt for dem som har fiskekort!
Terrenget er ganske kupert og det
er stedvis mye stein gjennom den

lette bjørkeskogen i Grødalen. Så
åpner terrenget seg med utsikt over
mange flotte tjern. Stien runder
Beinstigtjørn før den fortsetter i fint
og tørt terreng opp mot Birgithovda
(1173 moh). Stor varde på toppen og
utsikt over alle fjell og fjellområder
i mils omkrets! Like under hovda
ligger Birgitstølen. Videre, i stikryss
før Øvre Langetjørn, snur stien
nordover igjen. Fin sti og lett å gå
med Hallingskarvet midt imot. Så
ned den bratte lia mot Tuftebrua
og Ustedalsfjorden Rundt. Denne
