Your hike starts at the car park just below Svartediket Dam. Walk down Stemmeveien, then turn left across the bridge onto Bjørndalesveien. Keep left and continue to the end of the road. From the top of Bjørndalen, you will see a trail ascending beside the waterfall in the Støleelven river. The trail is called Stølekleiven. It begins with a steep climb through the forest before continuing into open mountain terrain. When you see the Ulriken mast, join the stepped trail (Oppstemten), which leads you to the summit.
