Jotunheimen, which literally means 'The Home of the Giants' was established as a National Park in 1980 and contains the 29 highest peaks in Norway and many high plain glaciers. This picture is part of a set taken on Autumn season walks from the popular climbing cabin at Spiterstulen in the Visdalen Valley between the two highest peaks in Northern Europe, Glittertind and Galdhøppigen
