    I walked the trail top to bottom in dry weather.
    Absolute surefootedness required!!! Cross scree fields carefully, partly loose! Some sections are on ground. With the slope and in wet weather, this quickly becomes dangerous.

      Here ends / begins the Jo Stigen, a short but severe variant to come to the Besseggen.
