INSTRUCTIONS 👇🇧🇻

Firstly, save this and follow me before the algorithm forgets we had this moment 🫶

This hike can be rough, but on the other hand, many bring small children with them with success :) It’s a 6 km hike in steep rocky terrain to the cave, so here's a packing list:

🥾 Good and waterproof hiking shoes. No sneakers.
🧥 Wind- and waterproof hiking clothes. The weather is always unstable.
🍞🍫 Plenty of food and snacks. I had dinner up there. Try sliced bread with brown cheese for a truly Norwegian experience.
💧Bring a water bottle. You can refill it from the stream.
🔦 A head lamp is wise. You’ll need both of your hands to navigate once inside the cave. Watch your head.

Have fun! 😘

No one plans for things to go wrong on vacation, but if you’re exploring Norway’s mountains, fjords, or remote roads this summer, knowing who to call can save lives.
Here is the quick guide to emergency numbers you need to lock into your phone before you head out:

📞 𝟭𝟭𝟮 – 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗲: For life-threatening emergencies or acute danger.
📞 𝟭𝟭𝟯 – 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀: For serious injuries, sudden illnesses, or accidents.
📞 𝟭𝟭𝟬 – 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗰𝘂𝗲: For fires, accidents, or acute pollution.

💡 𝗣𝗿𝗼-𝘁𝗶𝗽
Download the "𝗛𝗷𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝟭𝟭𝟯" 𝗮𝗽𝗽 by Norsk Luftambulanse before your trip! If you call emergency services through this app, it automatically transmits your exact GPS coordinates to the dispatchers. In remote areas like Jotunheimen or Lofoten, this saves crucial time when rescue teams are trying to find you. The download link is in the comments.

𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘆:
▪️𝟬𝟮𝟴𝟬𝟬 – 𝗡𝗼𝗻-𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗲: For minor incidents, reporting road hazards, or finding a sick/injured grazing animal on a trail.
▪️𝟭𝟳𝟱 – 𝗥𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀 𝘃𝗲𝗴𝘃𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻): For 24/7 real-time updates on closed mountain passes, tunnels, landslides, or driving conditions.
▪️𝟭𝟭𝟲 𝟭𝟭𝟳 – 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗰 (𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗸𝘁): For non-life-threatening medical issues that still need urgent doctor attention while travelling.

Nature here is wild and beautiful, but it respects no one. Stay safe, stay prepared, and respect the elements! ❤️

Found myself a nice little cabin near Gjende in Jotunheimen 😍 The weather is very good for indoor activities 😆

The Norwegian weather service yr.no tells me that it will soon clear up. Then we'll go hiking in this beautiful landscape ⛰️🏔

I highly recommend downloading the app at yr.no if you're on vacation in Norway. It's my favorite weather app 🌦

If you're in Norway right now, where are you? I'd very much like to hear about it! Tell me in the comments ⬇️👋

Have fun and stay safe hiking 💖

😊 Did you know that Norway has some of the lower speed limits compared to many other European countries and North America? Surprisingly not, it’s also the 2nd safest country in the world to drive in, right after the Netherlands! 🚗✨🫶

One reason is those strict speed limits, which are enforced pretty seriously. If you happen to speed, you could face some hefty fines (like €1300 if you're caught going over 80 km/h in a 60 km/h zone). Steike! (Norwegian for Yikes!) 💸💸 Your vacation in Norway is bound to be an adventure, and you wouldn't want a speeding ticket to mess with your budget. So take it easy on those roads!

And did I mention the free-ranging cattle? You'll find sheep sleeping on (yes on, not by) the roads in many places, and they could care less about you and your car 🐑😴 Charming creatures!

👮 You’ll also find that radar speed traps and police checks are pretty standard. Just a heads up!

🚗 Here are some general speed limits to keep in mind: 50 km/h in urban areas, 80 km/h on rural roads (though it may be challenging to hit that speed in many places), and between 90-110 km/h on motorways where they exist.

Drive safe, and have an amazing trip! 🌟
