In summer, buses run twice daily between Otta and Mysusæter, from where it's a further
4km to the Spranghaugen car park.
From Rondvassbu, the ferry Rondegubben crosses the lake Rondvatnet to Nordvika
(adult/child Nkr120/60, 30 minutes) three times daily from early July to late August.
Other National Parks
As if the Rondane, Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella and Jotunheimen National Parks weren't
enough, there are three further national parks in the same area.
Breheimen National Park
One of Norway's newest national parks, Breheimen opened in 2009 and covers 1691 sq
km. It's wedged between the Jotunheimen and Jostedalsbreen National Parks and has some
of the best hiking in the southern half of Norway. However, walking here is not for the in-
experienced. Trail markings are harder to follow than in some more trodden parks and all
the DNT huts are unstaffed. This is the place for an off-the-beaten-track adventure. For
more information, visit the Lom tourist office .
Dovre National Park
Immediately north of Rondane National park, this 289-sq-km park
( www.nasjonalparkriket.no ) was established in 2003 and is famous for having almost every
Norwegian flora type within its borders. The park's highest point is Fokstuhøe (1716m).

Reinheimen National Park
Founded in 2006, this 1969-sq-km park stretches from Lom in the southeast to Åndalsnes
in the northwest. It's a varied and relatively unexplored park that is steep and mountainous
in the west with a more gentle Alpine plateau in the east. It's home to wild reindeer, wol-
verines and golden eagles. For more information, visit the Lom tourist office .
