Leirvassbu - Spiterstulen

Route info

Description

From Leirvassbu you'll walk along Leirvatnet and two smaller lakes, Troget and Panna where the path becomes a bit more stony. Then the route will go slightly downhill to Visdalen on easy track where you also can choose to take the path to Gjendebu. The last kilomtres is easy with no hills and you'll probably reach Spiterstulen in good shape.

Hiking time

5 hours

Worth to know

Nice tent places around the lake Troget short after Leirvatnet. We recommend that you camp near Spiterstulen on the other side of the river.
