Eine sehr schöne und lohnende Tour über 4 Etappen. Wir hatten die Tour genauso geplant wie hier angegeben. Hütten und Hotel hatten wir vorher gebucht. Die Streckenlängen sind ausgewogen und alle als Tagestouren machbar, auch die 2. Etappe mit ihren 27 km. Wir haben in der 2. Etappe die Kongshelleren-Hütte als ausgiebigen Mittagsstützpunkt genommen. Ansonsten gibt es für die Pausen immer einen geeigneten Felsen mit Windabdeckung. Die gemessenen Höhenmeter liegen bei der 1. und 2. Etappe über 500 hm. Die gesamten Höhenmeter über alle Etappen kommen also weit über die hier angegebenen 1210 hm. Die Abfahrten auf der 1. und 2. Etappe sind mit Backcountry-Ski zum Teil anspruchsvoll. Für die 4. Etappe sollte es gutes Wetter mit guter Sicht haben, da der Track nicht markiert ist. Das wurde uns auch durch die Einheimischen bestätigt. Wir mussten diese letzte Etappe wegen extremen Wetter (schlechte Sicht, Sturm, starker Schneefall) leider ausfallen lassen und sind mit dem Bus nach Geilo gefahren. Wir hatten bis auf ein paar Stunden während der 2. Etappe fast nur schlechte Sicht mit teils Sturm und Schneefall. Das verlieh der Unternehmung aber einen abenteuerlichen Charakter. Wir waren Anfang-Mitte März 2026 unterwegs, also eine gute Woche nachdem die Hütten geöffnet hatten und die Tracks markiert waren. Ausrüstung: BC-Ski, Rucksack mit 10-13 kg, vorsichtshalber eine Schneeschaufel, sonst keine LVS Ausrüstung. Diese ist für die Etappen 1-3 auch nicht nötig.
