Ski touring to Mount Skåla in Loen, Nordfjord | Fjord Norway
Skåla - this imposingly beautiful giant of a mountain - towers over the village of Loen in Nordfjord, and is considered one of the most spectacular mountain walks in Norway.
You'll have views of fjords, mountains and glaciers, and nowhere else in Norway you will find a bigger difference in altitude from fjord to summit. During winter you can spend the night in the new Skålabu cabin at the summit. Skålabu is run by the Norwegian Trekking Association/Bergen og Hordaland Turlag.
The trip to Skåla can be done all winter without great danger of avalanches, but it requires good visibility and good judgement. Let this trip to wait if there is rain or fog! This is a strenuous hike of approx. 5 hours. The trip starts almost by sea level, in the parking lot about half kilometer from Loen center.
Remember to stay safe, and have knowledge about safety in the mountains. We highly recommend using a guide.
