Description
One of the lesser-known hikes in Hemsedal. A tough hike through a beautiful valley and up into great mountain terrain with wonderfully views.
From the top of Buaknuppen, 1613 meters above sea level, you have an incredible view of the mountains in Hemsedal and Jotunheimen.
Keep your dog on a leash, also in the high mountains.
