Norway, Jotunheimen

- Trail Ride in Jotunheimen -

Jotunheimen is a fantastic high mountain area in southern Norway and contains Scandinavia's highest mountain peak, at 2469 m (8,600 ft) above sea level, and many glaciers and beautiful mountain lakes. Even the somewhat lower mountain top, Glittertind 2452 m (8,300 ft) above sea level, is located in the area. It is a magnificent landscape with numerous glaciers and mountain lakes. Some of Jotunheimen was preserved as national park in 1980. The riding pace is variated with mostly walk but the terrain can be demanding with climbing up and down the hills.

Here Torgeir has been guiding trail rides for more than thirty years. He is a blacksmith by trade, has successfully competed in four-in-hand competitions and is even an instructor. In the winter when it's too cold for long rides, he drives a sledge with horses.
