Mountain hike with fjord and glacier view

Join the spectacular hike to the well know Flatbrehytta. Take breathtaking looks from unique viewpoints and listen to the stories of your local guide about the red hut, glacier, the mountains and the people living in Fjærland nowdays.

The trip starts at the parking place in Supphelledalen. From here we go up the steep and sometimes a bit rocky path. The path is some places challenging but in good condition. While walking you will after a while have a stunning view to the glacier and the fjord. The top, where the little red hut is, we are about 1000 m above the sea level. At Flatbrehytta the guide will tell stories from the old days and there will be time to fill up with some energy, or just to take plenty of pictures. After the break we are heading down to the valley again. The hike is like a loop.
