Please only do this if you are a really experienced hiker. There isn't a single section of normal path on the route. You'll either end up with your feet hanging off some stream, or can't see the path for all the snow, or you're literally scrambling over hill and dale. We set off as a family in normal shape at 9 a.m. and were at the top after 7.5 hours. If there hadn't been an emergency hut up there, we would have frozen to death. Maybe we were being particularly naive, but we go hiking every holiday and always on "difficult" routes. But here there was hardly a single normal section to walk. I'm only mentioning this so explicitly because we would have been happy if someone had warned us. Incidentally, using the stopwatch, it took us 12.5 hours to do the entire route. Yes, that included a break for a snack and to enjoy the really great view. So a great tour for real mountain goats and not for part-time hikers like us.

The path follows the river and has to offer some beautiful nature views.

Those who, like us, have already reached their limits during the ascent can take the easier, somewhat longer route over the paved road

Those who can walk down the slippery narrow paths, i.e. are sure-footed, have a head for heights and are experienced hikers, can walk this path to Framfjorden.

No real way. Follow the clearly visible red markings again.

There are no directions. So let's just keep walking down the street.
