The starting point of the hike is Gol Samfunnshus (Gol Community House).

By car: west from the tourist office, first road to the right. Follow the sign to Gol Samfunnshus. Park here.

On foot: Same as by car.

The hike takes just over three hours including a break for lunch. Follow the street Svøovegen to the first turn. Then follow the marked trail to Renslo. Follow the old trail to Åsgardane school, and on further up. Then follow the farm road to Berg, and the unmarked trail further north. A bit into the woods there are dirt roads that go down to a broader gravel/dirt road. Follow this a bit further north. Then you can get down to Gjesthus along Kolbekken creek. Here you will find the Buksebrune bridge, well worth a look crossing the Hemsila river. The bridge is an exact copy of the old Buksebrune. Now you can walk down along the road and on to Rv 51, or you can cross the bridge and go up to Øygardane. By following the highway a few hundred metres north, you can find the Søre Øygardsveg road to Gol church.From the church there is a marked road down to the town centre (see hike no. 1).
