    At 1,883 meters, Gaustatoppen is the highest mountain in the Telemark province. On a clear day, the summit offers impressive panoramic views of up to one-sixth of Norway.
    You can either hike to the summit or take the Gaustatoppen funicular, a convenient ride through the mountain's interior. The Gaustatoppen Tourist Inn awaits you at the summit. Not only can you stay overnight here, but you can also refuel with delicious waffles that taste simply delicious with this breathtaking view!

      Easy to reach platform with a magnificent view of the area. The track to the actual summit of the mountain is quite demanding though. So if you go further than the platform, wear good shoes! Those who want to keep it easy can end here at the platform and enjoy the view.

        Great view of the surrounding lakes and mountains.
