Cabin to cabin in Dovrefjell

With DNT cabins, a large grid and many hubs for public transport, Dovrefjell can offer many fantastic cabin to cabin trips. We have found several hiking tips so that you can explore this beautiful mountain area.

Difficulty: Demanding

On this trip, you will experience lush mountain valleys with grazing animals, and the more bare high mountain terrain. A really varied trip both in nature and cabin life.

The trip takes you via cozy cabins on mountain pastures, such as Gammelsetra. You also walk past one of DNT's smallest cabins: Loennechenbua.

Follow these tips when traveling in mountainous areas with wild reindeer:

  • Follow marked trails
  • Stay still if you see wild reindeer, so that they can move away undisturbed
  • Use binoculars and keep your distance
  • Keep dogs on a leash
  • Stay low in the terrain and move in the wind so that the animals do not get the smell from you
  • Keep an eye on the dog and follow the rules on leashing

Leave No Trace: Respecting Nature

Practicing "Leave No Trace" means that no one should be able to tell you’ve been there after you leave. We want to enjoy nature without leaving a mark.
