Bergsetbreen

We drove to Bergset in Jostedalen and found free parking at Bergset p-plass. From the parking lot we could clearly see Bergsetbreen in the distance as started west along the marked trail. The trail was very nice and well maintained, and with less than 100 meters ascent spread across less than 4 km we made good progress towards the glacier. While Bergsetbreen, like most other glaciers in the area, has diminished significantly over the last decades, and clearly did not descend as far down into the valley as indicated in most promotional material, it was still very much worth the visit. Especially as it was so easy to get to and can be accessed even by relatively small children. After a short lunch break, we returned along the same route. Note that if you want a slightly longer hike you can also include a visit of Tuftebreen, to which there is an indicated trail starting from just west of the common trailhead.
