Fitness and Experience Level

  • You’ll need to be hiking fit for this adventure. While you don't need to be an experienced hiker, you will need good endurance, some power in the legs for climbing uphill and a positive attitude towards challenges!


    Trip Difficulty: We've rated this trip as moderate to challenging, considering the terrain, distances, and elevation. It's vital to have a good level of fitness and endurance to fully enjoy and participate in the hikes.

  • Duration: On the more challenging days, expect to hike for up to 9 hours. These hikes will take you through remote and wild landscapes, offering a true wilderness experience.

    Distance: The hikes will cover distances of 15km, 20km, and 12km. Assess your ability to handle these distances in mountainous terrain.

    Elevation: Be prepared for uphill climbs reaching up to 1100m. Comfort with both ascending and descending is important.

  • Terrain: Expect rocky and uneven trails in some areas, adding to the hike's intensity.

    Scrambling: Some parts of the hike will involve some scrambling, which requires using your hands and feet to navigate terrain, without the need for ropes.

    Heights: The hike includes exposed ridges, so a comfort level with heights is necessary.

    Consecutive Days of Activity: The itinerary involves hiking for three consecutive days, which can be physically demanding and requires stamina.

    Weather Considerations: While we hope for sunny days, the weather in the mountains can change rapidly. Come prepared with appropriate clothing for hiking in various weather conditions, including rain

  • You'll stay at a family-run mountain hotel with views that stretch for miles from every window. It's the kind of cosy, traditional place with a lounge warmed by an open fire, a yoga studio, sauna, and a lake cold enough to shock your system if you're up for wild swimming.

  • Expect hearty Norwegian food designed to fuel active days—breakfast and lunch to keep you going, plus a three-course dinner each evening. We cater for all dietary requirements, just let us know what you need.
