It is also located about 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) west of the village of Hellesylt in Stranda Municipality.

The mountain Kvitegga is 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) to the northeast on the Ørsta/Stranda municipal border.
The easiest ways to climb the mountain are from the Sæterdalen valley in Hornindal Municipality or from the Kjellstaddalen valley in Stranda Municipality. A popular viewpoint of the summit is from the Honndøla bridge which was built in 1810. The bridge lies near Norwegian County Road 60 in Indre Hornindal.
