Snowshoe walking

Take a stroll around the lake or walk along the famous Rallarvegen. We guaranty some stunning views. The area lies in the western part of Skarvheimen, where the western and eastern weather systems meet. This provides the area with snow from both weather systems, and usually keeps snow conditions excellent throughout the winter. Slightly east of Reinunga lies the Storeskavlen glacier, which keeps the snow cool and stable.
