Sweet stop at Bakeriet i Lom

Lom Bakery is one of Norway's best bakeries - situated in the National Park Village of Lom. You can drink a coffee, buy bread or have a sweet snack such as a pistachio swirl, a cinnamon bun, croissants or other viennoiseries. It can be busy, but things go fast at the counter.

First impressions of Jotunheimen

Get settled at Jotunheimen Nasjonalpark where you can see almost every animal crossing the road. We stayed at Bessheim Fjellstue og Hytter: a modest but cozy hut that also has a reception with restaurant. It's situated in the heart of Jotunheimen and is a perfect base for all trails.
