Here you can enjoy the beautiful view from the mountain top, which at an altitude of 1,183 metres above sea level offers a great view of the high mountains – on clear days even as far as Hardangervidda.

At the summit you can go for short or long hikes, but wherever your tour takes you, you should stop by the summit viewpoint just 200 metres from the chairlift's descent point. Here you can enjoy a 360–degree view and identify the different mountain peaks with the help of the site's map and binoculars.

From the summit, there are several well–marked trails around the area, and you can also choose different paths on your way back down the mountain to see more of the beautiful mountain scenery.

If you're taking your bike on holiday, you can also take it to the top in the lift and cycle down one of the well–maintained routes.
