This guidebook is a comprehensive manual to the best skiing and alpine climbing in the Lyngen Alps in Northern Norway. It covers the iconic Jiehkkevarri traverse, the easy option Perstinden, the steep couloirs of Jaegervasstinden and everything in between. A good selection of ice climbing is also described.
The white peaks of the Lyngen Alps, near Tromsø in the far north of Norway, have attracted the interest of climbers and mountaineers since the 19th Century and they are famous around the world for their excellent skiing and breathtaking landscape.
A section of daytrips and family friendly activities are also included and the summer visitor can enjoy the peaks, valleys, lakes and glaciers of the Lyngen Trek, an eight day walk the length of the peninsula.
Beautifully illustrated and a fantastic guide, though rather large and heavy to carry in your rucksack.
