However, in many instances, alternatives are provided avoiding the most demanding sections. The guide also offers comprehensive advice on public transport access and accommodation options, and background notes on each of the featured mountain regions.From narrow ridges to wide glacial valleys and from shimmering fjords to striking alpine peaks, Norway is home to many awe-inspiring landscapes. Throw in the warmth and hospitality of the Norwegian Trekking Association`s extensive hut network and you have all the ingredients of a fantastic adventure. This guide is an ideal companion to discovering some of Norway`s classic shorter treks and best-loved mountain landscapes.
