Stage description

According to the DNT info page (info unfortunately no longer available online), there is a bus from the car park on the E6 road to Russenes (about 5km away) at the end of the stage. There is a hotel with a camping site there, as well as the possibility to buy groceries nearby.

From the Stohpojohka Hut, first follow the trail markers southeast across the stream, then continue south along ATV tracks. At the forks, it doesn’t really matter which track you take, because they eventually converge. The trail is marked first with a steep descent to the right, then an ascent to the left after crossing a stream. After a good 8 km, the first large meadow appears. After about 10 km, from a hill above a lake, you can see the forested valleys east of Olderfjord. The trail then descends through the forest to the road, becoming increasingly better.

If you want to avoid wading across a larger river, you can take the road to the left toward Smörfjord and Olderfjord/Russenes. Otherwise, turn onto a dirt road at the substation, cross the river after about a kilometer, and then continue straight south until you reach the E 6.
