Fun walk to a nice summit with fantastic views. We did the walk in summer and kids were delighted to find a patch of icy snow. Can do the walk from 2 sides, the Beitostolen side is steeper but shorter with some scrambling short cuts if you choose... the kids did! We made a video search "twoplustwocrew bitihorn" and you should find it. Views from the top look back down the valley towards Beitostolen one way and across to the mountains on the other side with a few lakes thrown in. We took our jetboil and snacks and had a mini picnic at the top while we enjoyed the view. As with any walking in Norway go prepared for changeable wether.. it was pretty chilly at the top!

Awesome. You start your hike after a 10 min drive from Beitostølen. There are around 10 - 15 parking slots available. From there it takes you about 2 hours to the top, brakes included. The way is not always easy, in the middle part you need to climb a bit and in the end there are a lot of stones in the way. Follow the red marks on the stones. When you are at the top the view is just amazing, 360 degree view to all the mountains around. Bring warm clothes and good shoes with you, the wind can get pretty strong up there. The whole hike takes you around 3,5 hours, as i said with normal speed and a lot of short brakes included. Highly recommend! Oktober 2021.

This is a must hike that will take you around four hours (this includes extra time to absorb the views and have a bite on top) if you're in good shape. There are enough maps and markers to give you a general idea of which way to go and the top of this hike (cell phone antenna station) offers amazing views though the winds can be incredibly powerful.

Der Weg nach oben war sehr matschig und zum Teil verwirrend angeschrieben. Es war unsere allererste Wanderung in Norwegen. Ich fand die Wanderung sehr schön, mit toller Aussicht. Sie war aber auch wirklich anstrengend und ohne Wanderschuhe nicht möglich. Es war außerdem sehr kalt und ich habe meine Winterjacke, Mütze und Handschuhe gebraucht. Das letzte Stück nach oben ist nochmal sehr steil. Im Internet stand, dass man 2h nach oben braucht. Wir haben 3h benötigt, wir sind aber auch Wander-Anfänger. Nach unten waren wir schneller. Die Aussicht war sehr toll und den Aufstieg absolut wert.

A delightful view from the top of the ⛰️ Mountain. Yes! Even though it took a long way to reach the top. But don't forget to bring some water and snacks.

Iconic mountain. Great view and reasonably easy hike assuming you're of decent health. It's a shame the tower on the top is an eye sore.
