Description.

From Foss Farm we follow the lightly trafficked Holmsveien, which winds through an undulating landscape with small hills, agriculture and some forest at the foot of Skrehelle. We arrive at Holm, where it is possible to take a detour to Doksrød for those who want to, or follow Holmsveien further south. Stop at Lund/Fjelldalsveien and enjoy the view! Then just roll down the rest of Holmsveien to Børsesjø.

From here you can turn west to visit the bird tower at the north-west end of Børsesjø, or east to follow Gjerpensdalen further south towards Porsgrunn.
