All hiking trails in HikingTelemark are well signposted, marked and graded in four different colors according to level of difficulty. Well marked trails makes it easy and safe to navigate. Here´s a brief introduction to the Norwegian grading system, to help you find the trip that best suits you and your tour mates:
The system consists of four color coded icons: green is easiest, blue is medium, red is challenging, and black is expert.
How demanding a trail is, is partly determined by the number of meters ascent and the length of the trip. The purpose of grading the trails is to create security and well-being among hikers.
