Summary

Description

Lake Gjende in the Jotunheimen National Park, seen from above the Gjendesheim tourist cabin. The path leads to the Besseggen mountain ridge, one of the most popular mountain hikes in Norway (6-7 hours from Gjendesheim to Memurubu).

Ibsen refers to Besseggen as Gjendineggen in "Per Gynt". Per describes it to his mother:

Har du sett den Gjendin-eggen noen gang? Den er halve milen lang, hvass bortefter, som en ljå. Utfor breer, skred og lider, rakk nedover urer grå, kan en se til begge sider lukt i vannene, som blunder svarte, tunge, mer enn tretten- hundrealen nedunder.

Henrik Ibsen, "Per Gynt", første handling.
