How to get to Jotunheimen National Park? [closed]

We're planning to visit Jotuenheimen National Park, Norway in September and we're looking for an advice how to get there and do not spend much money.

Choosing between Bergen and Oslo airports it seems that Oslo is a better option. A train from Oslo Airport to Otta station takes around 3 hours and only 249 NOK while from Bergen it would take around 11 hours and 499 NOK at best. Bergen would be an interesting to combine the whole trip with one day for seeing fiords but I don't think it's possible to combine both fiords and Jotuenheimen in a low cost trip. So Oslo! Any idea how to save money even more?

Then from Otta station to Gjendesheim cabin by Gjende lake. Where can I find some local bus prices and hours?
