Guidebook describing 10 short treks in southern Norway, plus a handful of variants. The hut-to-hut routes, of 3 to 8 days, cover Jotunheimen, Rondane, Dovrefjell, Trollheimen and Ryfylke, and an ascent of Galdhopiggen, Norway's highest peak at 2469m, is included. Suitable for competent hikers with experience of navigation and mountain weather.
A guidebook to 10 short treks of 3–8 days in southern Norway. Covering Jotunheimen, Rondane, Dovrefjell, Trollheimen and Ryfylke, the routes showcase the spectacular scenery of Norway’s mountains and fjords.


The treks range from 41 to 152km (25–94 miles), although some can be linked to create longer expeditions. Most stages are graded challenging or very challenging and call for stamina, navigational skill, competence on rough terrain, scrambling ability and – in some instances – a head for heights.
