Langsua National Park is situated between the Valdres and Gudbrandsdalen valleys. The region is accessible via several road networks and public transportation routes.
Primary trailheads into Langsua include Lillehammer in the east, and Beitostølen or Yddin in the west. Alternatively, the area can be accessed from Gjendesheim in Jotunheimen by trekking southeast via Sikkilsdalseter toward Oskampen. Utilizing the public transportation network allows for multi-day point-to-point or circuit routes to be completed without a private vehicle.
