Jotunheimen

Jotunheimen, known as the "Home of the Giants", is a high mountain area in Norway, covering about 3,500 square kilometers. Here you will find some of Norway's and northern Europe's highest mountains. Galdhøpiggen, 2,469 metres above sea level, is Scandinavia's highest mountain and Glittertind, 2,452 metres above sea level, is number two on the list. Jotunheimen is one of the country's most visited tourist areas. 1,93,8 miles² of the area was designated as a national park in 1980.

The Galdhøpiggen ski centre is open in the summer and well into the autumn, and there is also the Juvasshytta mountain hut nearby.
