On the ascent, you can enjoy the fantastic view of Langvatnet in the background, and eventually, you will also see both Ranfjorden and Mo i Rana. Here, you can feel the sun on your back as you hike uphill.
From Mo i Rana, take Nesnaveien, but turn off at Altermarka. Follow Altermarkveien for a little over 3 km until you reach a sign that says “Snefjellåveien.” From the parking lot at Kvernbekkneset, walk a few more meters. From the road, you can usually see ski tracks crossing the hill.
Always check the weather forecast and avalanche forecast before embarking on a summit trip.
