Gjendevegen 200, Norway

Hike to Gjendehøe

An easy and fairly short hike with views over lake Gjende. This trail is only 6 km round trip and has an elevation gain of 300 meters. You probably won't see anyone else on this track. Enjoy the blue waters of lake Gjende whilst maybe spotting some people on the ridge of Besseggen or Knutshoe?
