Description

Ski guide for the mountains around Hjørundfjorden, Austefjorden og Storfjorden

The Sunnmøre Alps is one of the most beautiful areas for ski touring in Norway. White-clad mountains plunge into the deep fjords, and from the mountain tops you can enjoy panoramas of alpine peaks and glaciers. Spend the evening by the coast and you can watch the sun sink down into the Atlantic.

Stig J. Helset and Håvard Myklebust have produced a long-awaited guidebook for Ski Touring in the Sunnmøre Alps. For the first time, it is published in English.

There is a special focus on the Hjørundfjorden area, and you will find tours to some of the most iconic alpine ski touring mountains in Norway, such as Skårasalen, Randers Topp and Slogen. There are also two suggested multi-day traverses around Hjørundfjorden.

You will find overview images of the various mountain faces, with routes drawn directly onto the images. A special chapter about avalanches and cornice hazards is written by IFMGA mountain guide Christer Lundberg Nes.
