Hiking
At 2469 m, it is the highest peak in Scandinavia. The normal route is a high-altitude tour over the Styggebrean (glacier) from the Juvasshytte, but the ascent from Spiterstulen is less complicated (3-5 hours each way).

Hiking
A worthwhile and quite strenuous tour. You have a great view of the Jotunheimen National Park. We did the tour from Spiterstulen without climbing the glacier. So you don't have to rely on a guide and, above all, you don't walk up in a group of 20 people.
