Nature

Our gentle hills and mountains are easy to hike in. We have nature reserves and national parks. We have cycle paths, country roads and footpaths. If it is the wilderness and ancient forest that calls, then head for Femundsmarka nature reserve, with its silver-grey birch trees, countless babbling brooks and quiet pools. Hire a canoe here – or take your own. Feel a real sense of adventure as you hike in Jutulhogget, one of North Europe’s largest gorges. Every winter, 500 kilometres of ski trails are prepared across the region. How about a trek to the top of Tronfjell (1 666 masl)? Enjoy the countryside here - we do!
