Map
The group stays together with the guide at Tyinholmen Fjellstue in a cozy cabin and will get to know each other there well. During the evening the trips will be planned together in cozy atmosphere and delicious food will be served from.
Tyinholmen is located on the shoreline of lake Tyin and offers great views over the lake and into Jotunheimen. You cannot get to Tyinholmen by car in winter so you need to step onboard of one of the historical snowcoaches that serves transportation to Tyinholmen in winter time.
Here, the good old mountain spirit from former days has been preserved, but wooden skis and evening dresses have been replaced with shell clothing and modern ski equipment.

Tyinholmen høyfjellstuer
Tyinholmen is one of the oldest tourist lodges in Jotunheimen, beautifully located by the shores of Lake Tyin, with panoramic views towards the towering peaks of the national park. The lodge has welcomed mountain hikers, skiers, and nature lovers for more than a hundred years.
From Tyinholmen, you have easy access to marked hiking trails in summer and ski routes in winter, including routes to iconic peaks like Falketind and Uranostind. The area is also ideal for gentler trips along lakes and through valleys.
Tyinholmen offers comfortable accommodation in the main lodge, as well as small, well-equipped cabins that can be rented in summer and winter. Traditional Norwegian food is served, and the peaceful atmosphere invites guests to relax and enjoy the mountain surroundings.
Located at about 1,100 meters above sea level, Tyinholmen is reachable by car in summer. In winter, the road is closed, and access is only by snowmobile transport (beltebil) from Tyin.
Meals
On Friday we will have a nice dinner at Tyinholmen, on Saturday evening there will be a three-course dinner. Every morning we will have breakfast from a rich breakfast buffet and pack a lunch. Remember to bring a thermos.
