The view from Fannaråken is fantastic with the whole panorama of the West-Jotunheimen range. Many come to Fannaråken to experience the sunrise.

Fannaråken is a popular hiking destination, both for mountain hikers and for those who collect peaks over 2,000 meters.

The walk follows the main road from Turtagrø as far as the second bend and then goes by a road up Helgedalen. High up in Helgedalen you pass the intake to a tunnel feeding water to the Fortun hydro-electric power station.

The walk then swings steeply up to the Keiserpasset - Skogadalsbøen road fork. From here a good path twists and turns up to Fannaråken. This is one of the "classic" Norwegian walks. Fannaråkhytta cabin is the highest mountain hut in Norway ( 2068 m a.s.l.) and is manned during the summer.
