This is the shortest route for hike/trail run from Sea level to the highest mountain in Norway. The route consists of paved road/gravel road for the first 20 kms, then trail marked by "Turistforeningen" /DNT with red painted T's. The route passes Fanaråken, with the highest located Mountain hut in Norway (2068 m asl.) On clear days this top gives an astonishing view of western part of Jotunheimen. Then the path descends and crosses Jotunheimen via paths, visiting Leirvassbu and Spiterstulen before the final ascent to Galdhøpiggen.
The Sevan Lake Loop is a very popular route in Armenia, yet is mostly done by road cyclists but this addition here at FKT will be for walking / running attempts. The route follows the edge of the lake for its entirety, and is fully connected. The Lake Sevan is a high-altitude lake located on 1900 meters, is also the largest lake in the Caucasus and one of the largest freshwater high-altitude lakes in the world.
With ca. 6000m of climbing the Capital Trail is a real challenge, but offers you an amazing variety of singletrack, Land Rover tracks, forest roads and quiet country lanes.
