The Stetind skiing and heritage experience

The mountains surrounding Stetinden, Norway’s national mountain, offer excellent ski touring options of different length and difficulty. From the main parking lot beneath Stetinden we can choose between several touring objectives of different length and difficulty.

Stetinden has a special place in Norwegian climbing history, as well in the Norwegian environmental movement. The famous Norwegian philosopher and climber Arne Næss introduced modern climbing techniques with climbs of unprecedented difficulty on the different rock faces of Stetinden. On a later trip to Stetinden, he was part of developing a new way of thinking about humanity and nature – eco-philosophy.

We will finish the ski tour by sitting down around an open fire, to share the best moments from the day and admire the fantastic surroundings. Here we will enjoy some coffee the Scandinavian way – boiled in a pot over an open fire and served with some local delicacies such as salted reindeer meat or salty coffee cheese.
