Sign up for a hike to the highest mountain of Dovrefjell national park!

Snøhetta is one of Norway's most famous mountains and given it's history many Norwegians

think it should have been chosen as Norway's national mountain. The hike goes from

Snøheim up to the big peak (2286 meters above sea level), and if weather permits we will

also hike to to the middle peak. Our guides are experienced hikers and offer good company,

local history of Snøhetta, life on Dovrefjell, geology, botany and information about wildlife

including muskox and reindeer. Coffee and a snack will be served. The trip is estimated to

last about 6-8 hours for people of moderate fitness. There is a lot of rocks on the hike so we

recommend good hiking boots with a stiff sole. The elevation is 800 meters and the total

distance is about 12 km. The maximum number of participants on the hike is 12.
