How many nights and huts should my trip include?

Most groups stay one or more nights at the same hut which allows for recovery if getting to the hut was more challenging than anticipated. One night is also fine, but adding a layover day is preferred for resting, enjoying the hut, and exploring the surrounding terrain. Experienced groups may connect multiple huts on longer trips – known as going hut-to-hut. These challenging routes tend to be longer and demand advanced navigation and route-finding skills, excellent skiing ability, and physical stamina. These routes are less commonly used, so going hut-to-hut might also require breaking trail.
