Top tours on skis
The area around Tyinholmen can offer fantastic top touring terrain with unique skiing experiences where Randonee and mountain skiing enthusiasts can frolic! Here are 5 suggestions for nice day trips starting from Tyinholmen:
Uranostind 2157 m.a.s.l
The classic on skis! Great day trip with a long descent to Tyinholmen! Steady climb up the glacier. It is a good idea to put your skis down before the last climb towards the main peak. Exposed and airy above the edge towards the cairn. Many therefore choose to drop the last passage. Estimated time 8 hours.
Langeskavlen 1878 masl and Langeskavltinden 2014 masl
Long ridge east of Uranosbreen. Popular ski peak on good weather days. Unique view over the whole of Jotunheimen. Descent from the top of Langeskavlen to the bottom of Uranosbreen. Or choose to go up the last ridge towards Langeskavltinden. Descent the same way as from Langeskavlen. Estimated time 7 hours.
The Koldedal glaciers
Nearest mountain range to the west and many skiing opportunities in this massif. Walk From Tyinholmen over Tyin and into the foot of the glacier. Steady ascent to the top of the glacier before the last bit turns to the west and peak 1822. Increasingly popular peak among Randonee enthusiasts. Estimated time 6 hours.
Breikvamsnosi 1720 m.a.s.l
Characteristic peak at the entrance to Koldedalen west of Tyinholmen. Great continuous descent down to Tyin. The snow stays for a long time on this flank and great skiing experiences are possible well into June. Estimated time 5 hours.
