The highest peak in the Ørsta / Stranda area. Historic Slingsby climbing route from Norangdal. A big day with alpine character. The upper mountain has glacier remnants and steep terrain requiring full alpine kit.
Approach from Norangdal — the classic Slingsby route
Long approach through valley, then steepening terrain
Upper section: glacier remnants, crampons/axe needed
Highest summit in the area — extraordinary panorama
Full alpine ski mountaineering kit required
High — alpine terrain, glacier, steep faces
“Slingsby chose this route for good reason. The highest summit in the area demands the full kit and a stable forecast — it rewards with the widest panorama in Sunnmøre.”
“Standing on Kvitegga on a clear April day, you can see the entire Sunnmøre arc. Save it for a high-pressure window.”
