Bøverbreen Glacier

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Bøverbreen is a glacier arm of the Smørstabbreen. In summer, you can hike to the edge of the glacier and admire the ice masses up close. If you would like to visit the approximately five square kilometer glacier itself, you should book a guided tour. Some of the guided tours start from Krossbu or Sognefjellshytta.

The Norwegian sun went on strike again, otherwise this would have been a great hike🫣

A holiday in Norway is definitely a must, and that was what we did today.
We went up to Bøverbreen via barely recognizable "paths" over hill and dale and through streams and fords, sometimes sitting down and using our hands and feet.

Short round to the glacier. Marked with a red T, first over planks and later over scree. The glacier itself is quite unsightly underneath and only shimmers so typically blue further up.
