Climb Stetind

Embark on an ascent of Norway's iconic national mountain, Stetind. This anvil-shaped peak is a striking sight from a distance and treats climbers to sweeping views of the sea and fjord. The summit offers multiple routes of varying difficulty. The easiest is the standard route, a grade 4+ climb featuring the famous "10 fingercrimps" section. Beyond this, an exposed ridge provides enjoyable climbing leading to the summit. Depending on conditions and fitness level, the normal route typically takes around 10 hours from car to car.

Climb Kuglhorn

Kuglhorn, a stunning peak nestled in Efjord, offers an enchanting climbing experience and a breathtaking summit. While it may see fewer climbers compared to Stetind, its charm is equally captivating.

The mountain boasts remarkable aesthetics, and its ascent begins with a traverse across the renowned "Verdenssvaet," a vast granite slab. The standard route follows the exposed eastern ridge, presenting Norwegian grade 3-4 climbing that offers a slightly greater challenge than Stetind. From the summit, a panoramic spectacle unfolds, encompassing fjords, mountains, the sea, and surrounding islands in every direction. Kuglhorn's appeal lies in its unspoiled beauty and lesser-known status.

Ridge Traverses

For those with an appetite for extended scrambling expeditions amid towering mountains, there exists a realm of possibilities. These journeys encompass exposed landscapes, narrow ridges, straightforward climbs, and occasional rappels. In the northern reaches of Norway, a diverse selection of ridge-climbing routes awaits, spanning a spectrum of lengths and difficulties, ranging from day-long jaunts to multi-day odysseys. Some routes find their optimal season during winter, making the descent an integral part of the adventure.
