Nordic Ski Touring (fjellski) – Level 3

WHAT

Nordic Ski Touring (Fjellski)
From hut to tent

WHERE

Gjendesheim mountain hut
Jotunheimen, Norway

WHEN

2-6 April
Arrival: 1 April afternoon / evening

If you dream to make a ski expedition in the winter wonderworld, this is the course for you. I will teach all skills you need to be self-sufficient and what kind of gear you need and how to use it.

During the course we will each day build a good winter tent camp with a windwall. We will among other things also teach you how to use a multi-fuel stove properly in the cold.

The course is planned as a ski expedition around Jotunheimen, where we will start at Gjendesheim mountain hut the first day. Herafter we will move outside, where we each day will ski to a new location and train navigation even if it’s whiteout.

All participants need to be familiar with fjellski both up and downhill.
