How to get there

From Hemsedal town center, follow Rv 52 west 4,6 km to Tuv. Take right onto the road to Grøndalen. When the road splits at Tubba, keep right towards Mørekvam (toll road, cash and Vipps payment) and continue until the road ends. 

Parking

Parking on the side of the road at Mørekvam. Make sure not to block for other vehicles.

Safety

  • Remember a topographic hiking map and compass.
  • Always choose hikes based on your ability and current conditions. The weather changes quickly in the mountains. Turn back in time (or choose another hike).

Tip

  • The first section, in the valley, can be done by bike.  
  • Remember a proper map and compass. Read more about safety information, equipment and tips under Details.

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.
