Sunrise at the Summit

As the sun rises above the horizon and the sky fills with soft morning tones, Gaustatoppen offers a truly special experience at the summit. In clear weather, you’ll enjoy panoramic views across large parts of Southern Norway, while the early light gives the mountain a unique and atmospheric character.

Sunrise at Gaustatoppen is about stillness, views, and standing at the summit as the day begins. The open mountain plateaus and dramatic landscape are revealed in the first light, creating a striking and memorable setting.

Gaustabanen takes you comfortably to and from the summit, offering an accessible and safe way to experience the high mountains—whether you’re here for hiking, skiing, or simply to watch the sun rise.
