Discover Våg: Osbakken and trails on Bergsfjellet

Våg offers two different outdoor experiences: the Osbakken recreational area with its beach and hiking destinations around Bergsfjellet. From Våg, you can walk to both Osbakken and Bergsfjellet. When planning your trip, you can choose between spending time in the recreation area and going for a hike nearby.

Osbakken: beach and sports facilities

Osbakken is a recreational area with a beach, volleyball court, football goals and toilet facilities. The beach and play areas give a visit a different focus from the trails on Bergsfjellet: here, the emphasis is on spending time outdoors and playing ball games. Facilities may change over time; check the latest information before your visit.

If you are looking for a holiday rental in Våg, you can include Osbakken as one of the local destinations to consider. The walking route from Våg is a useful guide when choosing the focus of your holiday, without requiring you to plan a particular itinerary.

Hiking trails on Bergsfjellet

From Våg, you can walk to Bergsfjellet. One described route starts at a car park near Løfallbekken. From there, a clearly marked trail climbs via Løfallia to Bergsvatnet, then continues along a long ridge to Bergsfjellet. The route’s stages are easy to distinguish: first the ascent to the lake, then the stretch along the ridge to the destination.

Another route starts in Løfall and initially follows the same trail as the route to Bergsfjellet. Then follow the Fjordruta from the foot of Bergsfjellet around Bergsvatnet and turn off towards the summit of Rostolen. The main difference between the two descriptions is their destination: Bergsfjellet via the ridge, or Rostolen via the Fjordruta and the area around Bergsvatnet. When planning, you can decide which route better suits your outing.

Bergsfjellet Rundt, a long-running mountain running event, is also held near Våg. It is described as suitable for the whole family. The event format described includes a refreshment station at Vasslivatnet. Alongside the route descriptions, this offers a community event with its own setting; check the event dates before visiting.

Culture and nature in the wider destination of Aure

If you would like to look beyond Våg, you can also consider destinations in the wider area of Aure. Kråksundet Sjøbruksmuseum has collections of equipment and objects documenting coastal culture and the Geitbåten boat. Aure kyrkje is the largest wooden church in Møre og Romsdal county. The dates refer to different things: the church dates from 1924, while its altarpiece is dated to 1460.

The Mellandsvågen nature reserve and its adjoining wildlife protection area are also in the wider destination of Aure. These regional cultural and natural attractions offer a different focus from a stay centred mainly on Osbakken and the hiking trails on Bergsfjellet.

Which base suits your trip?

When looking for a holiday rental in Våg, it helps to decide on your priorities first: would you like to focus on Osbakken and the walking routes to local destinations, or include cultural and natural attractions in the wider destination of Aure in your plans as well? The answer can help you choose accommodation based on the experiences that matter to you during your stay.
