This cabin is run by DNT. It is the highest cabin in Scandinavia at an altitude of 2068m! Built in 1926 and 1934, one of the two cabins was a weather station but is now also a hill walker's cabin.

FannaråkenDue to its absolutely stunning location, the views from here are probably the best from any window in Europe. Despite the wild location of the cabin it is extremely comfortable.

The cabin is only open during the summer months from late June/early July to late August/late September. During the rest of the year it is hermetically sealed and no access is possible.

There are daily guided trips from here down across the glacier towards Sognefjellshytta lodge.
