Sognefjellshytta

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Sognefjellshytta is located right on the FV55 scenic route at the highest point of Sognefjell at 1,400 meters above sea level. It is a popular training location for ski associations and, since the new lounge between the two traditional buildings was completed in 2015, it is also a great place for a coffee break. The architecture of the connecting building is a beautiful combination of wood and glass, which spreads the light throughout the space.

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Fantesteinen (1434 meters above sea level). This is the exact name of the pass height of the highest pass road in Northern Europe. The RV 55 leads over the Sognefjell and represents the connection from inland Lom to the towns on the Sognefjord. The Sognefjell pass road is one of the most popular tourist roads in Norway and is visited by thousands of tourists during the open summer season. The pass road remains closed in winter.
