When you are on a mountain hike in Jotunheimen, you will stay mostly over 1000 meters. This ensures that the climate can vary quite a bit – from sunny and warm days where you just want to jump in every single water you encounter along the way, to windy, wet and cold days where you need warm and waterproof and windproof outerwear.

See recommended equipment list for our summer trips.

When you are on a self-guided tour you will walk on well marked trails and it will be easy to find. The trail can go over marshes, you may have to cross some small streams, and there can be a lot of clocks and rocks that can be demanding to walk in. It is important not to underestimate the challenges, and read carefully through tour descriptions. We have trips for most people, and probably also a trip that suits you.

On a trip with us in Jotunheimen, you will spend the night in selected, cozy high mountain hotels and DNT cabins.

Now, you probably wonder what a DNT cabin is? 

A DNT cabin is runned by the The Norwegian Trekking Association (DNT). They run more than 550 cabins all over Norway!

We believe that the meals  is a big part of the experience on the trip, therefore the accommodation places serve you good local food in cozy surroundings. A rich breakfast buffet is served daily, providing enough energy for a long day in the mountains. Here you can make a packed lunch, and bring a hot drink in a thermos. In the evening, a 2-3 course dinner is served, which for most people will be one of the highlights of the trip.

All food and beverages are included in the price. There are usually opportunities to order food, and buy snacks and other items in small sales at the accommodation if you want something extra.

We offer different tour categories on our hikes. The tours are adapted to different levels, so you can find the tour that suits you best. The tours take you on everything from the finest trails, to the most beautiful valleys and summit hikes, with unforgettable views.

The white route is best suited for beginners. The walks are nice and short, with low climbs, but the views are still amazing!

The green route is adapted for walkers with somewhat more experience. The trips are longer, and some are also day trips.

The red route is challenging and has more summit trips than the green route. All trips are day trips.

The black route is a demanding multi-day trip. It includes two very demanding, guided summit hikes, where extra equipment is needed to reach the peaks.
