Gunnarsete is a traditional mountain pasture (støl) located about 475 m above sea level above Vik in Sogn. The marked trail starts near Vik stadium and climbs through birch and spruce forest, passing old barns and viewpoints overlooking Vik and the Hopperstad Stave Church. Along the way, an educational nature trail with ten information boards introduces local plants and wildlife, making the walk both scenic and informative. From the upper meadows at Gunnarsete, you’re rewarded with wide views over the fjord and valley, a classic glimpse of rural western Norway.
