General presentation
Rondane and Dovrefjell
Top plateaus, rounded peaks and muskoxes make up two major hiking territories.
Rondan National Park, Snøhetta and Snøhetta Point of View give the most telling landmarks of Rondan and Dovrefjell. Together, they form a destination where mountain reliefs and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 4 to 8 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Nature park
Rondane National Park
Norway's first national park, Rondane protects ten peaks exceeding 2,000 metres and one of the country's last herds of wild reindeer; its valleys travel from refuge to refuge.
Place indismissible
Snøhetta
Snøhetta is the emblematic summit of Dovrefjell. Even without climbing it, the panoramic pavilion of Tverrfjellet frames the massif and plateaus frequented by muskoxen.
Viewpoint
Point de vue Snøhetta
The Tverrfjellet pavilion combines a curved wooden inner shell with a glass façade facing towards Snøhetta; the access walk passes through an ancient military terrain restored to nature.
