Norwegian Mountain Museum
Norsk Fjellmuseum
The national park visitor centre and mountain museum in the town of Lom, covering Jotunheimen's geology, plants and animals, and mountaineering history.
The museum doubles as the visitor centre for Jotunheimen National Park. It presents the formation of glaciers, alpine flora and fauna, reindeer hunting, and the history of Norwegian mountaineering. It also provides practical information on mountain weather and safety, making it the best place to stop before heading into the mountains. It is across from Lom Stave Church, a two-minute walk away. Admission costs about 100 kroner, and you can also pick up hiking maps here.
Opening hours
Summer about 09:00–18:00; shorter in other seasons
