As If 5 days in Femundsmarka wasn’t enough, one of the many items on the Norway-to-do or bucket list was: Snøhetta! (literally: Snow-hat). Snøhetta is situated in the Dovrefjell area, which is actually very known for its population of Musk oxen.
So of course after coming out of the Femundsmarka, we stopped for some coffee and groceries in Røros which in turn caused us to arrive at Kongsvold shortly after 17:00hrs. surely not the most common time of day to start a hike, but hey…nothing ventured, nothing gained. So we decided to gamble a bit and see what our progress was after 1 hour and then decide whether to turn around and hike in to Reinheim the next day or continue. (the map indicated 5hrs hiking..). |
