When staying in Bøverdalen you have the perfect starting point for the peaks on Lomseggi, somewhat 10 peaks above 2000m concentrated in a small area. To get to the Hestbrtepigg-peaks you start at Netosætri in Bøverdalen.

Hi, Marco:
I was in Norway in summer 2002. I climbed Galdhopiggen (2.469 m.), the highest mountain in Norway and north Europe. I took a public bus from the neighbouring village of Lom (where you have a wonderful 12th century wooden church and some places to sleep and eat. I slept in a camping, where you can find splendid wooden cabins) to get to Spiterstulen. I started to climb from Spiterstulen (about 1.100 m.), where there is a lodge. The normal way gets to Keil-haus-topp (2.369 m.) following the east ridge (perhaps with skies at this point it will be dangerous), and continues to the visible top. In summer there wasn't snow (stones only) and some glaciers surround this mountain. Other people start to climb from the Juvasshyta hut (north east side), but you have to cross a glacier with some crevices (rope).
I recommend you this mountain, in a wild environment of glaciers, wide "U" valleys and sharp mountains. However, be careful with low temperatures (in august 2002 I was in the top with all my mountain wear, gloves included). Don't forget a GPS: in winter, sunset gets early!
