    Author’s recommendation

    • Always bring a compass and an additional map for safety precaution.
    • Hytta Klemsbu is located at 1600 meters above sea level.
    • It is recommended to use “fjellski” (mountain skis) on this adventure. These skis have steel edges which make it easier to get a good grip on the snow.
    • The Klemsburunden route will be marked by sticks from early January to mid-May.
    • The wind is very often much stronger above Finse than at the beginning of the route. It is recommended to wear the appropriate clothing as well as bring additional gear in case of sudden weather changes. Read about What to Pack for a One-Day Ski Trip to be well prepared.
