One of Porsgrunn’s best-known and most popular hikes, Fjerdingen rises to 361 m at its highest point, and offers good picnic areas, particularly on the south- and east-facing sections. The views are fantastic: you can see all the way to Færder Lighthouse and beyond to the Swedish coast.
Most people start from Flogstadtjernet by Bjørkedalen School. The trail is waymarked all the way to the top and passes through varied forest terrain with mixed forest. At the top, the pines hold sway.
