Austerdalsbreen is a glacier in the municipality of Luster in Vestland, Norway. It is a side branch of the Jostedalsbreen glacier, and is included in the Jostedalsbreen National Park. The glacier is fed by the three steep glaciers Odinbreen, Torbreen and Lokebreen.[1] The lower, flat part of the glacier displays a characteristic fishbone or lobster tail pattern.
