Trollfjellet
1028 metres of ascent over 6.62 km from Valvågen to Tjeldøya's only summit over 1000 — and to a namesake: the island has two registered Trollfjellet, a 660 knoll in the north-east and this one, which resolves 1008.9 against the published 1010. The west bank of Forsdalselva between the pines, east of Kjerstadtinden and the ridge to the top. KAST 1 – Simple with Fri Flyt: 10–15 degrees with sections of 30 on the ridge. Grade 2 — sun and gentle, fine skiing, the island's afternoon tour.
Elevation profile
1028 metres of ascent over 6.62 km from Valvågen: the west bank of Forsdalselva, east of Kjerstadtinden at 651 — and the ridge from 981 to the cairn at 1009, Tjeldøya's only summit over 1000.
From the lay-by on the fv. 7548 Tjeldøyveien at Valvågpollen — 3 m; the source's F711 is today's county road — the line crosses the river and climbs between the pines on the west bank of Forsdalselva, 109 m where the corridor stands in the hillside. The treeline sits at 204 after 2.43 km, and the band from 0 to 100 measures 3.9 degrees over the long approach.
