N.B. It`s not supposed to be easy! Description of the route: The Bèrghem Ultra Trail starts from Gåsbu (at the bottom of the Gåsbu hill)and finish to the Persbu cabin by following our GPS track through the Hedmark plateau (Hedmarksvidda), it’s partly primeval forest and on various marked trails (blue/red), as well as marked and unmarked dirt roads. The Hedmark plateau is a landscape with small mountain peaks, birch and spruce forest, but the real challenge is the marsh that predominates the whole area. There are 2 river crossing on the track with an alternative route in case of flood. P.S. Don’t be fooled by the low altitude profile because the terrain on the Hedmark plateau (Hedmarksvidda) is one of the toughest in Norway! GPX: BU130 at https://caltopo.com/m/J5EU
