I got up very early and started hiking at 7 am while everyone else was still asleep. Until arriving at Pass Suleskaret it staid dry. Until I got past Lake Övre Sulevatnet the trail was considering the rocks ok. However going up to the pass turned out to be rather difficult. Finally I arrived at the top where I took a short break. Soon after it started raining. This forced me to have lunch in the rain with very little cover behind some rocks.

 

Looking at the map I waited for the point where a gravel road coming from the dam at Lake Sulevatnet was only a couple of hundred meters away. Here I left the trail and walked over to the road. I followed the road which gradually descented to the main paved road 54 near Lake Eidrevatnet. Now I had to follow the mayor road with quite some traffic. All the cars gave me enough room to safely walk to Breistølbu. Here I staid for the night. The restaurant was only open for staying guests. I had a nice trout for dinner. The owners have fishing rights in one of the mountain lakes.
