Hi all,
This summer, my girlfriend and I are planning an Interrail trip through Scandinavia.
We would like to travel from Oslo to Jotunheimen National Park, where we’re planning to spend five days hiking. We’re hoping to either camp or stay in DNT cabins each night.
I’m currently trying to figure out the best way to get there. Ideally, we would start our hike somewhere within the park, such as Leirvassbu or Fondsbu. Our plan is to finish the multi-day hike at Gjendesheim, and then get the bus from there to Kvam or Otta. We would stay the night in Kvam/Otta and then take the train to Copenhagen.
I know there are several buses that run from Oslo to Jotunheimen, and I’ve also read that there are local buses within the park that connect different locations. I’ve looked at the Valdresekspressen website, but I’m struggling to find or book any scheduled buses.
I understand that bookings in Norway may only be released around 90 days in advance, so that might be the issue.
Any help would be much appreciated. If anyone knows which websites are best for finding and booking these buses, I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks!
