Bitihorn (1607 m) from Bygdin on Valdresflye

Go to the end of the parking lot where the trail starts. The trail heads to the right and you go up the back of the mountain. At the beginning it is flat and you have the mountain on your left and Raudfjorden on your right. This is a popular hike so the trail is good. It is marked with small cairns and red painted lines in the rock to the top. After a few hundred meters the trail heads south-east and gets steeper before heading south again and leading gently up the mountainside.

Go through the gate and to the left at the sign. Now the view of Raudfjorden and the surrounding mountains starts to get great. After about 2 km. walk the path to the south-east again and it gets steeper. Watch out for loose gravel over rocks, it is easy to slip here.

The last part of the hike is even steeper and there is some light scrambling. Follow the red pipe to the top.

At the top there is a large mast, a building and two cairns. It is said that Bitihorn offers the most beautiful view in the area, and I can confirm this.

Great views in all directions, Beitostølen, Jotunheimen, Hurrungene (the alpine part of Jotunheimen), Valdresflye and large parts of Valdres.

Return the same way, or you can walk down Tyskerstigen.
