- The route to Klemsbu will be marked by sticks from the beginning of January.
- The wind is very often stronger above Finse than down near the hotel.
- It is recommended to wear the appropriate clothing as well as bring additional gear in case of sudden weather changes, which can happen in the mountains. Read about What to Pack for a One-Day Ski Trip to be well prepared.
