    Nessebrue

    You'll grab some breakfast to go from the hotel before heading out early for the big day ahead. On your way out of Lom, you can't miss a quick stop at Neset bru with its blinding emerald waters. The very cold waters are from the Europe's biggest glacier, Jostedalsbreen, which is also responsible for the striking colour. Cars aren't allowed on the bridge so you can park right next to it and go for a walk over the water.

    viewpoint SNØHETTA

    Though the vikings roamed these lands thousands of years ago, they pale in comparison to the sturdy musk ox, one of earth's oldest land mammals. You'll walk 1.5 km from the parking lot before you arrive at the Snøhetta viewpoint, which was named "World Building of the Year" in 2011 and is also part of the Norwegian Wild Reindeer Centre. From here you'll have some time to spot for the wildlife that roams the Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella National Park. Keep your eyes peeled for these old furry creatures.

    Gravfeltet Vang

    Whilst driving through the Oppdal valley, you'll be surrounded by the Dovrefjell and Trollheimen mountains from all corners. You may also see a number of people on the road who are taking part in the famous St. Olav's way pilgrim path. Pull up to Gravfeltet Vang, in the centre of Oppdal, where you'll find one of Northern Europe's biggest burial grounds from the Iron Age with over 900 graves, a large amount coming from the Viking age. Valuable objects like swords and treasures from England, Ireland, and Southern Europe were also found and buried in the graveyard so that they could be taken into the afterlife.
