Description

Linnekleppen is one of the highest mountains in Østfold district, and when on top of the 17 metres high tower on its summit you will be higher than anywhere else in Østfold. The tower is the residence for a person who every summer is looking for smoke/fires in all of Østfold and parts of Sweden.
From the summit you will be able to view a large area of land, of which most are forests. But on a clear day you will be able to see as far as Gaustatoppen.
Linnekleppen is visited by several thousand hikers every summer.
