Description
From Båtskaret parking lot, the hike begins on Sherpa steps and then goes onto a rocky path. It is easy to find your way as there are many people walking here. The path is marked with red paint spots. The hike goes steeply up and there are some airy sections. All the way to the top there is a view of the northern part of Valdres.
At the top there is a panoramic view of Jotuneheimen, which I unfortunately didn't get to experience as it was foggy that day.
This is the shortest path to Bitihorn. The reason it is called the German Path is because during World War II, German Alpine hunters were sent here for special training.
I would not recommend this route to the top if you are afraid of heights. In that case it is better to go from the other side which is a much longer hike.
Have a good trip!
