Spiterstulen - Glitterheim

Route info

Description

The beginning is the same as the route to Glittertind. After about one hour walking uphill the terrain flattens. You'll reach two path crossing thats leads to Glittertind but you walk forward. The route continues slowly uphills to the lakes Veslegluptjönnen. At the beginning it's some stones and a tendancy to tracks. Around the lakes and down to Veo it's more stony and demanding.

The rest of the walk to Glitterheim is rather easy.

Hiking time

6 hours

Worth to know

Nice tent places in the valley Veo near Glitterheim and around Spiterstulen or if you like stones you can camp anywhere.
