Tunsbergdalsbreen is the longest valley glacier in Norway and part of the larger Jostedalsbreen ice complex; the valley has long supported mountain farming traditions and modern glacier research.
This area lies within the Jostedalsbreen region where strict route discipline and Leave No Trace practices protect fragile alpine vegetation and sensitive glacial features; note that the glacier is retreating due to climate change.
