Hiking the Jotunheimen
The high country of central Norway ranks among Europe's premier summer des-
tinations. Although there are numerous national parks criss-crossed by well-main-
tained hiking trails, it's Jotunheimen National Park, whose name translates as
'Home of the Giants', that rises above all others. With 60 glaciers and 275 sum-
mits over 2000m, Jotunheimen is exceptionally beautiful and home to iconic trails
such as Besseggen, Hurrungane and those in the shadow of Galdhøpiggen, Nor-
way's highest peak. Jotunheimen's proximity to the fjords further enhances its ap-
peal.
