Episode 67: Jotunheimen National Park

August 17, 2019

In Episode 67, Kaylee (aka "Smiles") is back on the show to tell us about her summer hike across Jotunheimen National Park.  The park is recognized as one of Norway's premier hiking and fishing regions and it has 250 peaks that rise above 6,000 feet - including Northern Europe's two highest peaks, Galdhøpiggen and Glittertind.

In the interview, Kaylee tells us about her solo journey through the park, hiking the famed Bessengen Ridge, walking hut-to-hut, and how this route compares to her travels on the Tour Du Mont Blanc further south in Europe.  Kaylee also hints at what is next on her backpacking list - so listen in for all the details.
