The coastal path from Tofte to Sandbukta explores a varied stretch of the western shore of the Oslofjord on the Hurum peninsula in Asker. The journey moves between paths, stretches of pedestrian and cycleway, open coastal recreation areas and more uneven woodland terrain.

Along the coast

From Tofte, the route continues towards Sagene and Tofte Strand before reaching Preusestranda. The trail becomes more rugged around Østnestangen, where short ups and downs through the Sandbukta–Østnestangen nature reserve open up views over the fjord.
