Skautkampan is a small peak rising to 4,734 feet (1,443 m).

Located at the western edge of the Skautflye plateau, it is the gateway to the vast Visdalen Valley. It also offers exceptional views of the glaciers of Galdhøpiggen, Norway's highest mountain at 8,100 feet (2,686 m).

Hiking

The last real hurdle on the way to Spiterstulen - 400 meters of descent - awaits you with a breathtaking panorama over the Visdalen, behind which the highest peak in Scandinavia rises majestically. The Galdhøpiggen (2469m) just surpasses the Glittertind (2464) above Glitterheim as the highest peak in summer. In winter, the Glittertind even rises a few meters higher thanks to its ice cap. But as you can see, the ice doesn't count for much for the Norwegians. No wonder, they have enough of it.

Finally the stony Skautflye ends and it becomes greener and easier to walk again. Nice view of Visdalen and Galdhoppigen. And the hut Spiterstulen is already luring;)
