You pass, among other things, the Løvøy Chapel from the 13th century and Jesusbukta. You will then reach the swimming area and campsite.
The hiking trail around the island is sometimes rough and difficult to traverse. The trip is approx. 4 km long.
There are good parking options below Løvøykapellet and at the beach right nearby.
In Kodal you will find many trails marked by Sandefjord Tourist Association. In the area of Heivannet and Svartå you will find more than 100km of marked trails in some of Vestfold's most varied forest terrain. The areas at Åletjønn and Trollsvann offers many hiking trails, beautiful scenery and rich wildlife.
From the center of Andebu there is a nature trail up to the lookout tower on Vetan. If the weather is clear you can see both the Oslofjord and the famous Gaustatoppen in Telemark. You also get great views from Tjuvborgen in Høyjord. There is a marked path from Bøen, approx. 3 km south of Høyjord.
In Andebu you will also find the highest point of the municipality – Brånafjell (499 MASL). To get to Brånafjell you can mark at Merkedammen (unmarked trail) or at Trollsvann. Follow the road 5.6 km from Trollsvann to the turnpike, and then folloW the sign for Brånafjell (2.5 km).

From Falkensten, follow the cycle and footpath along the Falkenstens road for a few hundred metres. Here the main road is crossed, and we follow Gamleveien to Kjølhaleskogen. If you cross the parking lot, you can take a walk outside the nice forest that also leads to the Reverumpa swimming pool. Out of the forest again, you have to walk between the blocks and follow the Kjølhalstien to Tordenskjoldbukta. From there you walk all the way to the water's edge to Selviken boat harbour.
The coastal path continues along the jetty, past the old Keisermarkens Brygge and Badehus from 1853 and Bromsjordet Næringsområde to Karljohansvern. If you wish, you can also take the trip out to Møringa and around Karjohansvern (approx. 4 km). Here we cross the canal and follow the canal to the footbridge in the south at Fyllinga marina. (When we walked this bridge was closed. Alternative path on the other side of the canal).
From here we walk along the harbour past Horten guest harbour, Bastøferjekaia and Strandparken to Steinsnes boat harbour. From Rørestrand, the coastal path runs along the sea and partly at the edge of the forest past RS Noatun and Borre National Park with the Borrehaugene and the Midgard Viking Centre. At Borre family camping, we follow the gravel road further south and through a beautiful forest to Åsgårdstrand. Here we enter Edvard Munch's gate, past Edvard Munch's house. Here we walk through the garden and continue along the guest harbor to the Bathing Park below the Grand Hotel Åsgårdstrand.

In winter, Botnemarka is a popular destination for cross country skiers. Botnemarka is located high above the Oslo Fjord and is thus a more snow-secure place in Vestfold. There are groomed trails to the DNT cabin at Brannåsen.
Parking
A small parking lot at the top of the Sollifeltet. You can also take the bus, see vkt.no's travel planner.
You can start at Falkensten in Horten, follow the marked forest road and path up to Slettefjell – with perhaps Vestfold's most beautiful view of Breiangen, then follow the path down to Frebergsvik.
From here you can continue up the Frebergkastet where there is a barbecue area and a barbecue hut.
If you continue on the north path you will reach Sandsletta where there is a large beach, a hut and campsite before you arrive at the boat dock at Snekkestad.
From Snekkestad you can choose to continue towards Ruseberget and the lighthouse at Mulodden, back via Garnbakken and to the parking lot in Mulvika – or if you want to walk the path over Pollåsen directly to Mulvika.
From here, the coastal path continues along a paved footpath to Hagemannsparken and further round Hydro to Holmestrand town center, along the pier where the coastal path now follows the closed railway track between Holmestrand and Sande.
About 1.6 km north of Holmestrand near Tvillingbru, a new picnic area with playground, campfire and gapahuk has been established.
Further north there are several detours to historical tours, including Rambergklova to Olav Duun's house, Angers Klev which further leads into Botnemarka and Hilmar's Road from Skjervikbukta to Botnemarka.
Along the entire stretch there are opportunities for swimming and fishing.
In summer time you can swim in Myrvannet, Åsdammen, Kalmo or Øyvannet and in late summer the forest abounds with blueberries. There are many clear and well-marked trails.
Several of them head over to Eidsfoss, including Bergstigen, the old work road to the ironworks at Eidsfoss.
In winter, this is one of the most snow-sure areas in the district and a fantastic ski area. As soon as the conditions are right, there are miles of ski trails along beautiful paths.
The area is well organized with a forest road and good parking facilities, but remember money / cards for the pay toll.
Arrival and parking
Angers Kleiv is easiest accessible from the plateau. From Rv 315 take off onto Rambergveien and then first left onto Kleivanveien. Here is the sign for Angers Kleiv. Follow the road all the way to the end here is a parking lot where a map of the area has been set up.
The King's Road is marked as a coastal path with blue marks and continues to the northwest from the water tower. It is possible to follow the royal road further north, but the path has several very hazardous parties and it is necessary to cross the railway track to get down to Rv 313.
From the water tower, a forest road runs down to Smørstein and Rv 313. The hollow roads are located between this path and the king's road.
If you choose to go Angers Kleiv from Bogen you park on the picnic area along Rv 313. You have to walk a little way along the road towards Holmestrand before entering the road that turns right at Smørstein and leads up to Angers Kleiv. It is not possible to drive up the road as this is a private road that is blocked.
