While driving along the main road E6 in the Gudbrandsdalen valley look for the sign to Høvringen about a 15-minute drive north of Otta. From the main road, there is a six kilometer drive up to a fork in the road just before you reach Høvringen. Bear right at this junction and after two kilometers look for a sign to Smuksjøseter on the right side of the road.
Immediately after turning off to the right you get to the toll booth for driving the road to Smuksjøseter. You need to pay 40 NOK by cash here or if you don’t have cash, pay by credit card when you get to Smuksjøseter. Follow this road for five kilometers until you reach Smuksjøseter.

Turbeskrivelse
From Smuksjøster follow the trail that ascends behind the Smuksjøseter cabin and goes just north of the hill called Solsidevassberget. The trail continues through the sparse vegetation towards Kjonsdalsbekken creek, that you need to cross.
Follow the signs towards Peer Gynt and as you get close to the cabin you will cross the river coming down from the mountains. Make sure to stop here and enjoy the river tumbling down through the rocks.
From the Peer Gynt cabin follow the trail that heads down towards the first of the three Høvringsvatnet lakes, where the third is the lake by Smuksjøseter. This last five kilometers from the Peer Gynt cabin to Smuksjøseter is very flat and the trail is easy to follow.
