Roundtrip Norway, July 2003
Rondane National Park
Rondane National Park
Most of Rondane is a high mountain-plateau at about 1000 - 1500 metres above sea level. From this plateau a number of great mountains rise in the central mountain area, up to about 2000 metres. There are 10 peaks of more than 2000 to be found in the park. The mountains are fairly round, and do not have very sharp peaks as you would find in Jotunheimen National Park.

Rondane National ParkThe hike is coming to an end. The last little bit to hike is a climb over a hill and we were back at Smuksjøseter and the car. The hike I made was quite easy, with an easy to walk on trail and without any steep climbs or hills. You don't really need to be in tip-top shape or a very experienced hiker to make this hike.
So if you are not afraid of doing a 10 kilometres hike, with some light up- and downhill walking on a partly rocky trail, you really should give this hike a chance, its beautiful! Of course there are much more challenging hikes around, and when I will return I will certainly try to get up to one of the higher areas of the park. The view from there must be so different, but with no doubt, stunning.
