After the bridge, continue along the path through cultural landscapes, then woodland, before ascending the steep hillside. As you approach Dalen you will arrive at a scenic vantage point, equipped with a bench for the weary rambler. After descending from the vantage point, continue to the ancient farm Åsland. The farm served as a thingstead, a legislative assembly, from around 1300 onwards. Here you can stop to enjoy the views of Lake Bandak and the Telemark Canal before returning to the starting point by Tokke kulturhus.
