About the Tinnemyra 6 km Loop

The 6 km loop around Tinnemyra offers a peaceful hike through the scenic pine forests of Eastern Telemark. This route is perfect if the short 2 km trail around the lake feels too easy, but you still want a comfortable, family-friendly hike.

Starting from the main parking area, the loop takes you past Grotbekktjønn and returns along the eastern side of Tinnemyra. Along the way, you’ll walk past small hills, open clearings, and quiet forest areas – with benches placed along the trail for rest breaks.

Terrain and Trail Markings

  • Well-marked trail: Clearly marked with blue trail signs the whole way.
  • Varied terrain: Mostly easy, gently rolling terrain. A short northern section crosses a logging area, which can be slightly rougher.
  • Benches for breaks: Several benches along the trail provide great spots to relax and enjoy nature.

Getting There and Parking

  • By car: Turn off E134 and park at the Tinnemyra parking lot (on the left-hand side when coming from Notodden).
  • Walk south along the pedestrian path until you reach the sign marked “6 km rundløype”. From here, follow the blue-marked trail west and north around Grotbekktjønn and back on the east side of Tinnemyra.

When to Go & Nature Etiquette

This hike can be done year-round, but in winter, the trail is best when snow levels are low.

Practice Leave No Trace principles: Stick to marked trails, take all litter home, respect wildlife and local rules, and avoid damaging vegetation.
