Keipen
840 metres of climbing from Medfjordbotnvatnan, and a tour decided in its upper third: the bowl south of the summit is both a release and a runout zone, and the slope above it is steeper than the route itself. Friflyt grades the tour KAST 2 — challenging, with cornices on the summit ridge.
Elevation profile
