We take you on a guided tour to one of the highest points in Mo I Rana to have a view of the city and its surroundings. It is a hike that takes you up an old path, to a vantage point known as the top of "Tjuvtrappa". When we go up to around 400 masl. we will tell you the story of this trail. When we reach the top of the "roof" of Mo I Rana, you will have a wonderful view of the city. The trip takes about 4 hours both ways, and we can either pick you up at your hotel, or we can meet at the starting point. Maps will be available for you at your hotel. We can make coffee by the fire (if it is not to dry), and you can have lunch up there too.

Itinerary

Tjuvtrappa (Thieves' stairs). The place got its name because a woman stole a cow at Loftfjellgården and pulled it up the mountainside to the top. It was later called Tjuvtrappa, and she took the cow further down towards Selfors. The place has no stairs; there has never been one either, but perhaps it is called Tjuvtrappa because the terrain is located in stairs up from Loftfjellgården.
Many families have lived there throughout the ages and the area has been inhabited for a long time.

10 a.m. and return about 1 p.m.We start from Brennsletta in Selfors, Mo I Rana.
