Hiking
First we took the Isprins ferry across the Hollandsfjord. From the pier to the “Engabreen” tongue of the second largest Norwegian glacier, Svartisen, it's a relaxed 90 minutes. The panorama is breathtaking throughout. There are a few insurance policies on the mountain itself. Surefootedness and good footwear are essential.

If you want to get even closer to the glacier, you should bring time and orientation with you: it continues unmarked over boulder. Stone men show the way.
