There's even a bike rental 😇 So even car travelers can reach the Glitterheim Hut by bike (approx. 6km).😁

The tent areas are not particularly inviting. There are no trees and unfortunately there is no river or lake, as the square is wedged between two streets. He is excellently equipped for this. You can buy groceries at the reception and there is a very well equipped service house. There are very neat sanitary facilities and two kitchens with seating.

Very nice, but if going downhill, keep your hands on the brakes, easy to lose control.

Once you get up to the lake, the ride is easy, and the quality of the road is pretty good. It's a beautiful ride, weather permitting.

In contrast to the east side of the lake, you can cycle relaxed here on the west side; especially good after a rest in Brimisæter.
