It’s was a straight forward morning spin from Lillesand towards Grimstad, the neighbouring municipality of Lillesand, all on excellent  tarmac.

The dagsturhytta over there caught my attention, especially its location just next to the ocean. 

After 30min taking in its splendit and tranquil atmosphere, I push back for a late breakfast. The short hike the bike section to get to the hytta was more than paid off. Incredible spot.

This hytta is named after Henrik Ibsen’s poem Terje Vigen, written in 1862. As per the extract, its themes of hardship, resilience and the impact of historical events on indivivuals’s lives remain valid until today, I think.

A nice ride to an even nicer location.

Fair winds…
