Vestre Hestlægerhøe, also written as Vestre Hestlægerhø, is a mountain in southern Norway.[1][2][6] It is located on the municipal boundary of Lom and Vågå, both in the county of Oppland.[2] Vestre Hestlægerhøe is part of the Jotunheimen mountain range and is located within the Jotunheimen National Park.[4]

The peak of Vestre Hestlægerhøe rises to a height of 1758 meters and has a topographic prominence of 53 meters.[2] Adjacent mountains are Styggehøe (1883 m) to the west and Austre Hestlægerhøe (1950 m) to the east.[7] All three mountains are drained by the Veo to the north and the Russa to the south, both tributaries of the Sjoa.[8]
