Knutshøe

Highlight • Summit

Knutshøe is a fantastic objective for an adventurous trail run and you can expect the trails to be much quieter than on the neighbouring Besseggen Ridge. The summit offers magnificent views of the mountains and lakes.

Øvre Leirungen

Highlight • Lake

This is a beautiful lake beneath the Knutshøe ridgeline. To the north it flows into the beautiful Gjende lake, which lies beneath the famous Besseggen Ridge. A run over Knutshøe, followed by the section along the lake's northern banks is superb.
