By far the most beautiful hike in the area. The path is marked with red paint on stones. This hike brings you to the foot of the glacier. You can litteraly touch it! But be warned, this hike contains a difficult part at the end. Almost rock climbing as the path is hard to find in the end. You will cross rivers/water, there are stones laid out to step on. Wouldnt recommand doing this hike in rainy weather, because even now after a week of no rain there where slippery parts on the way. Make sure you bring proper clothes, shoes and food and water with you. There is a very dirty out house kind of toilet at the beginning of the small parking area. The road to the small parking lot asks for you to leave 50 nok cash in a wooden box near the road and fill in a paper with information to leave in your car. Pay attention the road is not accesable for campervans. But all together , a beautiful hike in rough nature with the most beautiful views and a big glacier at the end! With no massive crowds in your view. You can take amazing photos. We were almost alone, totally insane this is not a crowded hike. We almost couldn't believe we are in europe doing this hike. Felt like walking in new zealand/patagonia/canada at some times. The hike took us 4 hours and 6,65km in total (including lunch and taking lots of pictures), keep in mind we are...

Nice hike, you can get to the glacier. Some were starting their glacier walk from this point.

All descriptions say this is an easy walk, that assumes you are physically fit and have experience hiking in mountains. If you're unexperienced I would not recommend doing this without a guide.

Also if there is rain, the trip down the mountain becomes much harder, as you will be crossing multiple streams without bridges or clear paths. Plan for this before you leave, I would not start the hike later than 12:00 on good days.

It took us about 4 hours returntrip from the parking, but we were going slow. From Skei to the parking is about half an hour. You drive the road at Klakegg to the hoyster campsite, then take the tollroad up. Very...

Très belle randonnée sur un sentier très peu fréquenté. En effet, nous n'avons croisé personne !

Le glacier vaut vraiment le détour, on peut l'approcher de très près. Le paysage est magnifique.

Compter 2h30 à 3h AR. Le glacier se trouve derrière la cascade.

La première partie de la randonné est bien balisée. (marquage rouge) En revanche, ce n'est pas le cas pour la seconde partie. Il n'est pas simple de trouver son chemin dans la montée.. Certains randonneurs laissent des cairns pour guider les prochains, suivez les si vous rencontrez des difficultés a trouver le marquage rouge. C'est bien utile pour s'orienter..

Le chemin est glissant sur le retour par temps humide, restez prudent. A éviter par temps de pluie si vous n'êtes pas expérimenté. Bonne condition physique recommandée, ça grimpe pendant une bonne heure. Mais cela reste accessible.

Un parking est disponible via une route privée, pensez a apporter de l'espèce, 50 NOK en septembre 2022. (pensez a emporter un crayon, cela peut être utile, des crayons étaient disponibles mais ce n'est pas le cas de toutes les routes privées menant a des glaciers). Il faudra déposer la somme dans la boîte mise a disposition (voir photos)

Aucun réseau, pensez a informer un proche de votre présence sur le...
