The hiking trail is a forest path that is steep in some places. The view from the ancient fort in Huseby is fantastic.

The hiking trail is a simple forest path that is very steep in some places. It's an advantage to wear boots. The trail forms a loop and passes ten signposted sights, including the Huseby ancient fort, a stone sheephouse, cottage foundations, and the magnificent beech forest in the snail shell ravine of Uggletoften.

From the ancient fort at Huseby, you have an extensive sea view. From the hill to the west of the ancient fort, you can, in good weather, see Måseskär's Heidenstam Lighthouse, built in 1865. To the west, you can see Härmanö Huvud, Stocken, and Råön, and to the northwest, the stone lighthouse on Hållö, the water tower on Smögen, and Brandskär Lighthouse. Further to the north, you'll spot the church and water tower in Lysekil, with the refinery's chimneys in between.

Morlanda Hembygdsförening has arranged the parking area and takes care of the ancient fort, which you'll find after ascending the steep path.
