Linear route
A very nice cross-country skiing route from Ulsåk to Gravset. You start relatively flat where there is a slow but steady climb up to Gravset.

The cross-country ski route from Ulsåk to Gravset is a nice and easy route that gradually climbs up to Gravset. The route goes through pleasant terrain with rolling turns. When you reach Båstø, you must cross the county road, be careful, skis must be taken off.

If you take the route in the opposite direction, be aware that there are many downhill slopes and you must be good at standing and snowplowing in rolling terrain.

Is the dog with you? Remember that the dog should not be a hindrance to others. There is a leash requirement all season in the valley & forest trails from Gravset in the east to Feten and Lio in the west, as well as in the ski arenas at Totteskogen and Gravset. During Christmas, winter, and Easter holidays, there is a leash requirement on all machine-groomed trails in Hemsedal. Thank you for cleaning up after your dog.
