BeitostølenMjølkevegen round trip from Beitostølen (95 km)
This is a roud trip in the central part of Mjølkevegen (approx. 95 km) which combines the two route alternatives over Slettefjellet and along Tyin in great scenery. For less experienced cyclists and a more enjoyable ride we recommend to plan for an overnight or even two along the route. You can travel to Beitostølen by bus or car. Our Mjølkevegen partners at Beitostølen are Beito Resort Hotel and Riddergaarden, as well as Grønolen Fjellgard 4 km along the route towards Slettefjellet. When you book, please inform them that you are cycling the Mjølkevegen route. In the small and friendly town of Beitostølen you can enjoy a wide variety of activities, restaurants and shops as well as many hiking and cycling possibilities. From Beitostølen, turn right onto Beitestølevegen and follow the Mjølkevegen signs towards Slettefjellvegen. The ascend to up the Slettefjell mountain pass is spectacular although challenging - a climb of approx. 500 meters to the top at 1315 masl. The view in clear weather, though, is stunning and very rewarding, both behind you towards Jotunheimen and ahead of you towards Vang. The following descent is even steeper, so watch out and take care! We recommend a stop and a 15 min. walk to the Sputrefossen waterfallon the right side of the road, before you reach Slettefjellkiosken, a good place for refuelling - for both riders and bike batteries! ___ For an overnight in this area, from Slettefjellkiosken it is a 4.5 km sidetrip down into the valley floor (240 m elevation) to Rogn Camping, a Mjølkevegen partner. ___ At Slettefjellkiosken, turn right and follow Liagardsvegen and Vennisvegen along Lake Vangsmjøse towards Øye. At the end of the lake you start the climb up to Tyinkrysset, either by following the main road E16 or - our recommended choice - choosing the historical Kongevegen (King's Road) between Øye and Tyinkrysset. On the first, watch out for traffic, on the second, you might have to walk your bike along some trail sections in the upper parts before Tyinkrysset. The signage follows Kongevegen. At Tyinkrysset you can find a grocery store, Intersport store and Tourist Information, where you also can charge your e-bike batteries, either inside the store or outside on the wall next to the garbage containers. Also, there are chargers available for Shimano, Bosch og Yamaha. For a meal or an overnight, Filefjellstuene is a Mjølkevegen partner. From Tyinkrysset, follow the Mjølkevegen signage uphill in the direction of Lake Tyin and then cycle alonside the shoreline in the direction of Eidsbugarden. At Tyinholmen Lodge, a Mjølkevegen partner, you can enjoy a cozy and traditional accommodation and a homemade meal. The natural surroundings are breathtaking, and this is definitely an area to explore more thoroughly, i.e. on a side trip into the Koldedalen Valley! From Eidsbugarden, the historical boat M/B Bitihorn will take you across Lake Bygdin. For info and time schedule: www.jvb.no. Remember to prebook for both riders and bicycles.

The view is simply breathtaking. There are a couple of resting areas (bench/cliff gallery) on the way.

The modern Via ferrata is a climbing path with iron steps and wires in steep rock faces. You don't need any former climbing experience, but you should be in reasonably good physical shape. Minimum age 12 years. For more information and booking, visit www.synshorn.no
BeitostølenAround Lake Bygdin in four days
Bygdin rundt is a four-day hike around Lake Bygdin. It is mostly easy, but day 2 and 3 around the western end of the Lake are of intermediate difficulty with some rocky terrain. The entire hike is above the tree line. We suggest that you use the mountain cabins for sleeping along the route, but you are by no means limited to them. There are plenty of nice camp sites to be found on all legs (again, day 2 and 3 are partly rocky). If you want to camp in the direct vicinity of one of the huts, you are supposed to pay a camping fee there and use their facilities in order to limit human waste around the huts. Please hike responsibly, stay on the trails, minimize your impact on vegetation and wildlife and take all your garbage with you. Day 1 - Bygdin-Yksendalsbu Distance: 20.5 km Ascends: 790 m; descends: 800 m Highest point along the route: 1366 m.a.s.l. The first leg starts right across the Sami camp along road 51, approx. 1 km south of Bygdin Høifieldshotel. For several kilometers, the terrain is quite flat, with bushy salix vegetation. After 1 km, the trail towards the summit of Bitihorn turns left, but you keep going straight ahead in the direction of Yksendalsbu. After passing Lake Seksin you start gaining height and the trail ascends towards the small summit of Marabotthornet. Up here you are rewarded with a great view across Lake Bygdin towards the ragged peaks of Torfinnstindane and Galdeberget further west. For a while, you hike along this broad ridge, high and free, with some high points around 1350 m elevation and small lakes, to the high point of Skjeldrehornet. Now you leave the ridge and descend to the northwestern shore of Lake Olefjorden, over a small saddle and up the Yksendalen Valley to the self-serviced mountain cabin Yksendalsbu. Day 2 - Yksendalsbu-Fondsbu Distance: 16.5 km Ascends: 1100 m; descends 1080 m Highest point along the route: 1424 m.a.s.l. Day two is the toughest as it incudes two quite steep ascends of 400 and 200 meters respectively. The first one starts right behind the hut. Later, you descend into Vølodalen Valley and ascend right out of it again on the other side. Here you reach the eastern shore of Lake Dryllin. If you are in good shape and used to navigating off marked trails, we highly recommend a side trip to the summit of Dryllenøse (1510 m.a.s.l.) for an exceptional view towards the Gjende Alps north of lake Bygdin. You can leave your backpack by the trail. The trail now continues in easy terrain over the highland and down the valley Vennisstøldalen to the western end of lake Bygdin with the full-serviced cabin Fondsbu. Despite the easy terrain, the cairns with the trail markings are low and far between, so you need to pay attention in order to not to lose the trail. Day 3 - Fondsbu-Torfinnsbu Distance: 20 km Ascends/descends: 680 m Highest point along the route: 1545 m.a.s.l. At Fondsbu, follow the gravel road until you cross over the River Mjølkedøla where the road turns into a trail. Now you hike 3 km along the shore of Lake Bygdin to the River Høystakka. In 2019 the route to Torfinnsbu was rerouted on a new bridge over the Høystakka river mouth and around the southern foot of Galdebergtinden to avoid the terrible boulder fields north of the mountain in the Uksendalen valley. The new route now ascends slowly up to the Langedalen valley east of Galdebergtinden where it meets the old route before descending again to the lakeshore. The last two kilometers are easy along the shoreline to the self-serviced cabin Torfinnsbu. Day 4 - Torfinnsbu-Bygdin Distance: 13.5 km Ascends/descends: 270 m Highest point along the route: 1124 m.a.s.l. The last day of the trek around Lake Bygdin is the easiest and shortest. The trail follows more or less the shoreline all the time, with the exception of three smaller ascends over some rocky parts. The last three kilometers from Bygdisheim back to Bygdin Høifieldshotel are on a gravel road closed for motorized traffic. Alternatively, legs 3 and 4 can be done by boat during the summer season. The entire hike can be booked as a tour package with all accommodations, boat legs and transport by bus from Oslo to Bygdin through Jotunheimen Travel (tailormade inquiry).
BeitostølenSynshorn and Fagerdalen
Fagerdalen and Synshorn are two very nice hikes that can either be combined or hiked separately. Starting and ending point is at Fagerstrand on the eastern shore of Lake Bygdin, close to Bygdinstøga Kafé and Bygdin Høifieldshotel. Getting there is by bus (summer route) from Beitostølen or Fagernes or by car along road 51 (parking against fee). Tour details Fagerdalen valley circuit: approx. 8 km in total and 220 m ascend/descend Synshorn (1475 m.a.s.l.): 4.5 km return and 400 m ascend/descend Description The unmarked but clear trail starts more or less right uphill on the left-hand side of the stream running downhill from the Fagerdalen valley. After an ascend of approx. 180 m, the stream is crossed on rocks and approx. 100 m after, the trail splits. To the left you enter the Fagerdalen valley, while straight ahead/right you continue uphill to the summit of Synshorn. You first reach a high point with a stunning view down to the road, Lake Bygdin and towards the mountain of Bitihorn (and most people will claim the mountain here), but the true summit lies 250-300 m further to the north. Return on the same way. For the Fagerdalen circuit, turn left approx. 100 m after crossing the stream. This junction can be a bit unclear, but heading towards the northern shore of Lake Heimre Fagerdalstjernet, you will re-encounter it shortly. The trail is unmarked. You pass by a nice spot for a swim in the lake and continue straight ahead until you meet the DNT trail (red T's) from Valdresflye to Lake Bygdin, just before the stream Synsbekken. Turn left and follow it downhill (this junction is very unclear, but when reaching Synsbekken you are not supposed to follow the path towards the right uphill, but hold left downhill. Just 50 meters after the intersection, the path is clear again, see last picture) to the lakeshore and then left again along Lake Bygdin back to Fagerstrand. The last 3 km are on a private gravel road (some traffic can occur, be considerate towards each other).

There is a reason for the Besseggen being one of the most popular mountain hikes in Norway. The spectacular panoramic view over Jotunheimen's peaks and the two lakes - the deep blue Bessvatnet and the turquoise Gjende - draws more than 60 000 hikers during the short season that lasts from late June to early September. Tour information: The 14 km long trail leads between the two DNT cabins Gjendesheim and Memurubu. It climbs/falls 1200 m in total and is quite demanding over its entire length, so you need to be in a good physical shape to hike it. The Besseggen ridge, approx. one kilometer long and 250 meters in elevation, is located midways along the trail. It involves some scrambling, and people sensitive to heights should mentally prepare for a challenge. For most people, it takes approx. 7-8 hrs to complete the hike. Parkering is at Reinsvangen, 1.5 km before Gjendesheim. From there, a shuttle takes the hikers to the trailhead and the boat (https://gjendepark.no). There’s a kiosk and toilets at Gjendeosen. Choice of route: The most popular way to hike the Besseggen is to take the boat from Gjendesheim to Memurubu and walk back. Many may experience the ridge easier to climb up than down, especially if one is afraid of heights. Another advantage is that you don’t have to rush in order to reach a boat. The disadvantages of this direction, however, are that there is no good way out in case you need to break and that you’re walking away from the view. The greatest advantage of hiking in the opposite direction, from Gjendesheim to Memurubu, is that you can start at any time and don't share the trail with a boat load of people. Early birds may even reach over the ridge before the meeting traffic starts. Later during the day when it gets crowded you may have to wait your turn at the narrowest passages. Plus, you don’t have to remember to turn around to take in the view. Should you be in doubt whether you can accomplish the Besseggen, we recommend that you start at Gjendesheim. That way you can turn around at any time and you can even walk to the viewpoint on top of the ridge and back without having to accomplish the ridge itself. This is also the best way to experience Besseggen outside the boat season. On the return, you can choose the trail towards Bessheim that exits on Veslefjellet and return to Gjendesheim on the trail from Glitterheim which you meet at Bessosen. This is a less steep and demanding return, but a little farther than the direct descend to Gjendesheim. Boat information Since most people take the boat in and walk back from Memurubu, the departures from Gjendesheim in the mornings tend to be more crowded than the afternoon departures from Memurubu. It is highly recommended that you book the boat trip in advance. For timetables, terms and booking, visit www.gjende.no The boat service runs daily from the middle of June to the middle of September and during the weekends before and after the season until the first week in October. In peak periods and weekends there are often extra departures, so check online before travelling. Equipment Remember to wear solid hiking shoes with profile soles. Bring warm and weatherproof clothing even in nice weather, enough food and drink for the entire hike and on warm summer days, a small towel and some swim wear for a refreshing dip in Lake Bessvatnet. Erosion The heavy traffic has left its toll on the trail, leading to erosion and destroyed vegetation. An enormous effort has been put into repairing the trail and revegetating the worst sections on both the Gjendesheim and the Memurubu side. Please keep on the trail when walking the Besseggen!
Stay in a traditional mountain lodge
Get the most out of your trip in the mountains with a stay in a traditional mountain lodge, called fjellstue in Norwegian!
Many mountain lodges also serve hot and comforting food made with local ingredients, perfect as fuel before or after your hike.
Right by Besseggen, you'll find the popular mountain lodge Gjendesheim, run by Norwegian Trekking Association. It even has its own 'food manifesto', which ensures that guests will not only have a tasty meal, but a sustainable one as well.
"There's a lot of focus on eating less meat, but I think it's just as important to encourage people to eat everything on their plate to prevent food waste, and to communicate why local products are important," says host Marius Haugaløkken.
Free-range pigs from Sveen Gard, lambs that have been grazing in the mountains from Snerle Gard, and potatoes harvested at Sve Gard in Vågå are just some of the local produce used in the kitchen at Gjendesheim – good for you as well as for the local farmers.
Mountain food
Another great mountain lodge in area is Bessheim, located right by county road 51. Here, they have been welcoming guests since 1890. On the menu, you will find the best produce from the area, including mountain trout, moose, deer, and lamb.
A speciality you have to try while in the area is reindeer meat, which, according to head chef Bjørn Ekkerbakke, tastes just like the mountains.
"It has this incredible wild flavour and tender meat," says Bjørn, adding that they get all their meat from Vågå Tamrein, a local association that has been active in Jotunheimen since 1942.
The historic hotel Hindsæter is also worth a stay, situated right above the Valdresflye Scenic Route. The hotel offers mountain luxury and tasty local food with views over the river Sjoa and Jotunheimen.

At Haugseter, guests can enjoy a calm and welcoming atmosphere indoors, with homemade food and drinks, often by the fireplace. The surrounding area offers a wide range of outdoor activities, including hiking, cycling, horseback riding, and skiing.

Langsua National Park is located nearby.
