"Paint it all black" is a saying I once heard. Don´t have too high expectations, and you won´t become disappointed. Well, I was prepared for some grey, foggy, wet, and freezing days, but I did not expect all this nice weather! Not much black at all - the moutainsides were rather colourful and bright, the autumn season about to end. Extremely beautiful scenery!!
We also had to cross some large, shiny white parts of new snow as we were trekking from one cottage to another. Quite challenging as the scree underneath could be slippery, and we also had to be careful that our feet did not sink deep down in between the rocks. I was happy to have poles, and despite the challenge I really enjoyed some real snow after four years without!
Amazingly large, sweet, and juicy berries! Some extra energy...
I am really impressed by the Norwegian Travel Association and how well they run the cabins. They are so nice and cosy, so clean and well fit out, and the firewood is lying there just waiting for hikers to heat up and occupy the cottages. There are also stores of a variety of canned food that you buy, so you don´t have to carry it all yourself. When the the backpacks aren´t too heavy you enjoy the hike even more!
It actually snowed the last night, and the Christmas feeling wasn´t far away... This country isn´t too bad after all :o)
