Hu.2  Sognefjellshytta lodge to Skogadalsbøen lodge
5 hours / 15km
50m / 650m
Marked in summer with cairns.
Marked in the spring with twig poles.

From Sognefjellshytta lodge go round the west end of the lake in front of the lodge and then head south across the flat plateau. After 1½km the path to Fannaråken (Hu.3) forks to the south west. Continue south for another 3½km across this plateau, passing a large tarn on its east side. Soon the path makes a descent for ½km down into the valley and merges with the path from Krossbu lodge to Skogadalsbøen lodge (Hu.1).

This merged path is then followed for 8km to Skogadalsbøen lodge as described under Hu.1. In the spring the marked ski trail goes to the east end of the lake in front of Sognefjellshytta lodge and heads south east for 2km to join the route of the Krossbu Skogadalsbøen summer path which it largely follows.

In the winter and spring it makes a 4km detour to the east of the Vetle Utladalen valley to avoid an avalanche prone area.
