Finse Hytte

Finse on the Rallarvegen is well away from the road network but Stan has helpfully pointed out to me that it does have a DNT hut with a campsite attached.  Our DNT membership has expired, unfortunately.  Without membership,the prices for dormitory accommodation would be in the region of £42 for the two of us without meals, or £150 with breakfast and supper provided (well, this is Norway).

Camping may be an option because the track is apparently free from snow today - may all change by the time we arrive though.

I'm not sure what we're going to do for provisions on this stretch of the trip, but looking at the bikes I can see we aren't going to be able to carry much in the way of food - possibly nuts, crispbread, cheese, butter, packet soup, dried pasta, dried fruit, and oats for the stages until we're back alongside the road? A meal out would cover the costs of rail tickets between Bergen and Gol though.
