Saltfjell

The best approach to the Saltfjell for a walking holiday is by way of E 6 to Rognan and Roads 812 and 813, running west to Storfjord. The striking feature of the Saltfjell is the juxtaposition of glaciers to the west with wide valleys and ridges of hills to the east. The differences in topography are reflected also in differences of climate: in the west it is damp, with relatively mild winters, while the eastern part of the area has a typical inland climate, with low rainfall and cold winters.
