Located on the northern edge of Trondheim, Bymarka offers a refreshing break from urban life with its expansive forested hills and pristine lakes. Trondheim Kajakk invites adventurers of all skill levels to join a 6 km hiking tour that blends local history and nature in a uniquely accessible package.

Once at the final tram stop, the guided hike leads you through peaceful woodland trails lined by native birch and pine, winding past the reflective surfaces of Kyvatnet and Lian lakes. These waters are calm mirrors, punctuated by the occasional splash of local wildlife. The terrain is mostly gentle, ranging from easy to moderate difficulty, making the route approachable for those new to hiking and seasoned walkers alike.

A notable waypoint along the trail is the classic ski jump—a reminder of the region’s winter sports heritage and a scenic icon contrasting the lush greenery. Trondheim Kajakk’s tour stands out for combining cultural immersion with outdoor adventure.

The group moves at a relaxed pace, with breaks designed for photos, snacks, and soaking in the views. Alongside expert guidance, participants receive hiking poles, warm beverages, and pastries, rounding out a comfortable and well-supported experience.
