Parks & Nature

Walk across the bridge above our cabin, and up to the farm of Lindberg. From here you will find a well marked path up to the summerfarm "Lindbergstølen". It is a steep climb, but for a normally fit person it will take no more than 60 minutes. The view of the valley is amazing. You have to actually go through the farm and find the path to the left of the barn/vegetable garden. The farmer Øystein is very nice and helpful if you see him - otherwise you can walk straight through without any problems.

If you drive to the end of the road and park at the Youth hostal there is a nice walk up along the river. After about 2 kms on gravel road it splits. You can either continue up the road or make a right and walk across the river, then follow another road up to a beautiful lake. TO reach this lake is about 20 minutes from where the road splits. You can continue on either side of the lake if you want to.

In Urdland make your way up the valley. Park the car at the gate, then walk or bike up to Jonstølen. (Basically where the river flows from) It is beautiful!

This old farm is a typical farm from 18th century Norway - it is very beautiful and it is a nice place to go to spend a sunny afternoon. Note that it is not manned, but still a nice place to visit.
