© Miles Elvidge Being based in Vågåmo meant that we were essentially equidistant to Rondane and Jotunheimen, and up until this point, we'd spent most of our days exploring Jotunheimen. Fancying a change in terrain, we opted for a trip up Rondslottet. A heatwave had began to brew, it was bright, clear but oppressively hot. We'd observed that the afternoons tended to bring patchy cloud and secretly wished for the sun to go in today. We drove from Vågåmo to Spranget, ascending through the forrest and onto open fell where the (now very much full) carpark is located. It is 6km from Spranget to Rondvassbu (where the climb officially starts) and this would ordinarily make for a long day out if it weren't for the bike-hire service offered by the DNT cabin. Here at Spranget you can hire a mountain bike for the 6km >>>
