This idyllic forest trail in Julsundet is short and does not climb steeply uphill at the start. The trail follows a regular forest track with varied surface. At the outermost point of the trail there is a nice bench with an amazing view of Julsundet and Otrøya. In Kobbevika, down to the left, just off Ramshaugen there is a small swimming area and a picnic area. A stone mound is located in the forest on the right side of the path in this area.
