Accessing the north summit, at altitude, is a moderate but steep hike up. The actual summit (Stortoppen) is located about southwest of the north summit via a ridge and is not as easy to reach, requiring exposed scrambling. An alternative route is to scale the summit from the south by merely steep hiking, but this requires crossing glaciers.
