The Sukkertoppen hiking trail is a popular hiking destination in Ålesund, known among the locals for its scenic surroundings. The path offers a clear route that goes through woodland, and gives walkers the opportunity to enjoy a varied nature. There are several alternative routes to the top, which gives visitors flexibility in their choice of tour.
From the top of Sukkertoppen there is a fantastic view of the city, the mountains, the coastline and the fjord. The path can be partly wet and dirty at times, which is important to be aware of for those planning to walk. Access to the path is from Sukkertopvegen, and halfway up the hill you pass a transmitter, which can be a useful orientation point for walkers.
