Mosvatnet Lake Loop & Vålandsparken

CC 2.0: Peter Van den Bossche

This is a pleasant loop around Mosvatnet Lake, with the option to add some paths in adjacent Vålandsparken. Start at the north end of Mosvatnet Park, which is ~2 km southwest of the historic centre. There are wide gravel paths around the lake. It’s a combination of open and wooded terrain, with some lake views. A loop is 3 km.

For more, we suggest a loop around the adjacent Vålandsparken (park). At the eastern end of Mosvatnet (~2 km mark on our map), there’s a path connecting to Vålandsparken. A loop around the park’s paths is ~1.5 km. Take the same connector back to Mosvatnet and complete the lake loop. Bonus: Lit at night!

Add-On: Connect to our Stokkavatnet/linear park route, using the cycle path alongside Madlaveien (Rt. 441) for 1 km (not scenic, it’s a busy road).
