This rough and ready cabin is passed on the trail up to Rabothytta on the very edge of the Okstindbreen glacier. Unlike Rabothytta, which has many amenties, Steinbua is primarily used as an emergency shelter.

The "Steinbua" shelter was and remains a refuge in case you're caught in a storm or fog. Located by Mørbekktjønna, a small lake, with a direct view of the (calving) glacier, it's a stopover before the final 2.3 km to Rabothytta.
