Galdhopiggen is the highest mountain in Norway and Northern Europe, at 2,469 m. On one side, the 500 m precipice in Lake Gjende, known for its intense green colour, on the other, the view of Lake Bessvatnet. And it was here that Peer Gynt rode the great reindeer that flew through the air. Allow a whole day for the excursion through Besseggen or to the top of Galdhøpiggen, although it can be done in 5 or 6 hours! The climb is said to be difficult and is for experienced walkers. Guided tours are also available.

MAGNIFIQUE !
Nous avons fait l'ascension et la descente en 8-9h (attention ce n'est pas la visite du glacier mais bien l'ascension du mont)
Cependant, si vous n'avez pas envie de payer un guide, c'est top!
L'ascension n'est pas super facile (raide et bcp de roches) jusqu'au moment où l'on arrive à hauteur de glacier! La on finit par randonner dans la neige avec une vue magnifique sur le glacier !
C'était fantastique !

Attention : même en été il peut faire super froid la haut ! Couvrez vous !
