In late July 2022 I crossed part of the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. I was dropped off at the northern edge, and traversed the tundra, first southwardly and then turning westwards after a couple of days. I had never spent a full week alone, and certainly not so far from civilization. After seven days, I had walked close to 90kms, carrying around 22kgs. Let me know if you have any questions! And sorry about the wind in the first third of the video, it gets better after day 3😅
Så bra ut det der Jon Åge. Kjente umiddelbart at det rykket i fjellfoten etter å ha sett på denne videoen 😊 Går en del på vidda selv, men mye lengre sør. Tommel opp umiddelbart og hilsen herfra.
Det er kjekt å høre! Spent på å teste ut traktene lenger sør, og for den del også se mer av den ville vestvidda. Kjente det var skikkelig deilig når jeg fant stedene der det føltes ut som om ingen hadde vært før.
Super video med flott redigering og innhold! Inspirerende områder og likte at du viste ruta du gikk. Godt å se noen faktisk får fisk i disse vannene :)
Thanks for the VLOG. I am planning to hike with 4 friends next year in the summer. Your video helped me a bit with choosing gear as I could the what me awaits :D Still no clue on where we should walk but hey its still some time
Great video and trip!! I went to Hardangervidda this August and loved it! Where did you get dropped off at the northern edge? Would love to go back again :)
Thank you! I started close to Tinnhylen, you can get there by car if you use the toll road. Where did you go? I also spent about a week there this august, but further south this time 😊. (Video coming, just have to make time to edit)
I used the Naturehike Vik 1, very light and inexpensive. A bit too light for the norwegian mountains in my opinion, since the winds can be very strong. After 20+ nights I experienced a malfunction due to the wind pushing a metal part into the rainfly eventually causing a leak. Definitely repairable, and for most users the tent is perfectly fine, but not quite robust enough for me😊
I have watch a few of your videos now, really like them. I have always been interested in the Hardanger. There was in interesting point where you mention why go out of the warm tent/sleeping bag. You do go out (we all should), of course, because its the right thing to do. Greetings from Canada.
Thank you Craig! :) I'm glad you caught that, I didn't reflect on that moment being more than just the literal act of going out, but you're exactly right. Always do the hard thing.
Helikon tex 😊 ganske snedig, lukter litt på å skaffe en større en egentlig, men veldig fin til kart, kompass, lykt, litt snacks, hansker eller annet man trenger i farta.
Takk for turen og denne flotte film/fortellingen. Ser jeg har mye å lære på redigeringssiden. Gikk Hadlaskard til Sandhaug i sommer, heldigvis med medvind. Kan tenke meg at det kunne være røft over de slettene i kraftig motvind. Spørsmål til ditt telt, er det et 1-duks telt?
Nice Trip! Which sleeping bag did you use? I was wondering if the one I have with a comfort temperature of 5°C would be enough for the Hardangervidda in september. Thank you very much!
Depends on how cold you tend to sleep. Mine has a comfort of +2°C and a Limit of -4°C (Cumulus X-Lite 300). It worked very well in late August, but i used a inlay which roughly ads 5°C to it, simply for comfort. It can definitly go down to 0°C on some nights. Semptember tends to have more weather changes than August so i would ad a bit of caution to my description. Alltough than being said, you could also wear some clothes additionaly if it would get a bit cold. If you have a good sleeping mattress to pair it with and maybe a light inlay you are fine.
Thank you, and sorry for the late reply, I suppose you're done with your trip now. Mine was also a 5°C comf, and it was almost too cold in july, with temps between 2 and 5 at night. I would want at least a -5°c comf temp for august-september, and even warmer for october and onwards. How did it go?😊
I was pretty cold most nights with my 5° bag in july, even with warm water bottles and a good amount of wool layers. Would definitely want something warmer for september 😊
had a beautiful trip, ended up buying a new sleeping bag which has a rating at around -5°C and it was a good decision as we had some snow and a little bit of ice rain in mid september. thanks for your answers!
Helikon Tex Numbat, tror jeg kjøpte den på Lamnia, men siden den gang har den også kommet hos norske nettbutikker. Også en del andre produsenter som lager lignende nå til dags😊
Ja dette har vært drømmen lenge! Skal se om jeg finner excelarket med oversikt over hva alt veide, men kort fortalt: telt 1kg, sovepose 1kg, underlag 0,5kg, div regnklær/puffy jakke/ull ca 2-3kg, mat 2,7kg, gass 500g, brenner, kniv, kjele og panne, slippers, 3-5 L vann, sekk 2kg, chest pack 0,5kg ish, kamerastativ 1,5kg, powerbanks 1kg. Sikkert litt smått jeg ikke kommer på i farta, men stort sett det (vekt er ca). Vekta gikk heldigvis ned i løpet av turen😅
Fant ut av det når jeg kom hjem😅 Hadde kort for statsallmenningene, og visste ikke at det fantes for de privateide områdene. Rart ikke inatur opplyser om det på salgssidene sine.
That was quite a trip , how could you keep that to yourself all that time ? The weather was nasty on the plateau, I had a good laugh when you mentionned the wind was mooving against you in whatever direction you choose to go 😅 . You know that my pseudonym means " good angler " or " good fisherman " in french , so I was curious to see you fishing in those dream spots . I've been fishing since I am 5 , now I'm 55 . I noticed that you need practice but you did pretty well capturing those 2 dandies , I was a bit jealous . Thats the kind of trip I would like to do one day . At what time of year did you do that trip ? I was wondering what you would forget on this trip because you tend to forget things if I remember some older videos . Only ustensiles where left behind , not bad ! The last part of the journey was a jewel in itself, no wonder the tourists , the scenery was spectacular. I think this was your longest trip filmed on RUclips , I really appreciated it , I will rewatch soon on the big screen instead of my phone to get a better picture of the scenery . Thanks for sharing , too bad you dont have enough time for RUclips now that you have a job , because you make very interesting videos 🙂
It was such a good trip, honestly the best I've ever had. The trip was late July, any earlier and it would still be covered in snow haha. The wind was so bad, especially the third day, had to put on every layer just to stay warm while I was moving. To think I considered leaving the puffy jacket at home😅. Aha, now I finally know what Pecheur means! Very surprised I got any fish at all, so super happy with the two I got, and the spot was just amazing. Probably one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. And all alone too! Hopefully I still get time to get a video out 4-5 times a year, especially as I get settled into the new job. I have another video almost done, so planning to get it out before christmas :) As always, thanks for the support, it's greatly appreciated!

Fantastic video of your trip and Hardangervidda. Thansk for sharing!
Thank you! Happy to see you enjoyed it 😊
Super video med flott redigering og innhold! Inspirerende områder og likte at du viste ruta du gikk. Godt å se noen faktisk får fisk i disse vannene :)
Tusen takk😊😊 Ja var veldig hit or miss på de vanna. Der jeg fikk napp var det umiddelbart og ellers virket det omtrent dødt.
Flott film!
Hvor gikk ruten fra/til?
Ahh.. nevermind så du beskrev ruten.. 🙂

Thanks for the VLOG. I am planning to hike with 4 friends next year in the summer. Your video helped me a bit with choosing gear as I could the what me awaits :D
Still no clue on where we should walk but hey its still some time
Thank you! The nice thing with hiking is you don't really need a plan, everything you need is on your back :) A plan is just a bonus!
Great video and trip!! I went to Hardangervidda this August and loved it! Where did you get dropped off at the northern edge? Would love to go back again :)
Thank you! I started close to Tinnhylen, you can get there by car if you use the toll road. Where did you go? I also spent about a week there this august, but further south this time 😊. (Video coming, just have to make time to edit)
Awesome video! What tent are you using? 😊

Nice video! Did a similar hike 15 years ago, although not the detour you made past Harteigen. Very nice on the Hardangervidda plateau.
Oh cool! It's an amazing trip😊
Hva slags merke er chest rig'n din? Så behagelig ut😄
Helikon tex 😊 ganske snedig, lukter litt på å skaffe en større en egentlig, men veldig fin til kart, kompass, lykt, litt snacks, hansker eller annet man trenger i farta.
@@Giskeoutdoors
Genialt. Har i mellomtiden kjøpt en helikon tex fra norsegear👍blir morro å prøve den på tur.
@@aimpoint0247 kult! Du får si fra hva du syns når du får testa litt🙌
Takk for turen og denne flotte film/fortellingen. Ser jeg har mye å lære på redigeringssiden.
Gikk Hadlaskard til Sandhaug i sommer, heldigvis med medvind. Kan tenke meg at det kunne være røft over de slettene i kraftig motvind.
Spørsmål til ditt telt, er det et 1-duks telt?
Tusen takk for hyggelig tilbakemelding! Medvind hadde nok hjulpet ja😅 Det er helt riktig, Naturehike Vik 1 er en-dukstelt.

Hei! Hvor har du kjøpt den brystveken?
Helikon Tex Numbat, tror jeg kjøpte den på Lamnia, men siden den gang har den også kommet hos norske nettbutikker. Også en del andre produsenter som lager lignende nå til dags😊
Life Goals! Hva var innholdet i sekken? 22kg er ganske mye.
Ja dette har vært drømmen lenge! Skal se om jeg finner excelarket med oversikt over hva alt veide, men kort fortalt: telt 1kg, sovepose 1kg, underlag 0,5kg, div regnklær/puffy jakke/ull ca 2-3kg, mat 2,7kg, gass 500g, brenner, kniv, kjele og panne, slippers, 3-5 L vann, sekk 2kg, chest pack 0,5kg ish, kamerastativ 1,5kg, powerbanks 1kg. Sikkert litt smått jeg ikke kommer på i farta, men stort sett det (vekt er ca). Vekta gikk heldigvis ned i løpet av turen😅
Steik kor ein heilTundranes tur! Fjellgutn slær te igjenn med ein heil veke👌
Pun level through the roof!
The fishingzone does not end 🤗 Man må bare kjøpe kort 🙃
Fant ut av det når jeg kom hjem😅 Hadde kort for statsallmenningene, og visste ikke at det fantes for de privateide områdene. Rart ikke inatur opplyser om det på salgssidene sine.

Hahah, finally got the finger out, and said good enough
Flått tur 👍
