Cosa vedere a Jotunheimen

Jotunheimen Must-Sees

Jotunheimen National Park, known as the 'Home of the Giants,' contains Northern Europe’s highest peaks, including Galdhøpiggen and Glittertind. The landscape is defined by the emerald-green Lake Gjende, colored by glacial silt, and the sharp granite spires of the Hurrungane range. This selection features historic mountain lodges like Gjendebu, the oldest DNT cabin, and Spiterstulen, a central hub for glacier trekking and summiting the region's 2,000-meter peaks.
