About this experience

Our goal is to give you an authentic Norwegian hiking experience with traditional tasty food specialities like our famous Reindeer Stew.

Experience Trolltunga almost alone, without long queues. Enjoy sunset and sunrise in the high mountains of Hardangervidda National Park. Relax around campfire before you go to sleep in our top notch Fjällräven tents with warm sleeping mats.

We also do small detours which most hikers walk by, like a beautiful located waterfall where we have a scenic lunch and our sunset rock Preikestolen (the original) with the best view of the Ringedalsvatnet lake and valley. Our guides have walked in these mountains since childhood and love to show you the best of what this hike have to offer.
