Hi everyone,
Myself and 3 friends will be traveling to Bergen this June, and we would like to backpack in Hardangervidda National Park from June 15-June 18. We arrive in Bergen on the 13th, and I wanted to give us a day to purchase any gear or equipment before heading to the park.
I saw this post which inspired the trip https://theadventurebeckons.com/travel/norway-hardangervidda-national-park
But I am not set on it, and was hoping to get some more insight of other trails in the park that would be okay in June. I am currently unclear which huts will be open for sleeping/provisions. We plan on all bringing tents in casse huts are not an option.
Any opinions on routes or advice is very welcome. Thank you!

I’m not sure , but I think most places open July 1st
Most cabins open on the 26th of June. In general I’d say you are a bit early for this kind of trip, especially on Hardangervidda west, as it is likely quite snowy mid-June. The western part of Hardangervidda will have a decent amount of snowy patches year-round usually, and June can be more white than you are prepared for, just saying. The eastern part of Hardangervidda is likely much less snowy at this time, but the western part is nicer, in my opinion.
