Activities
Meet the wild in fascinating eastern Norway!
Østerdalen can boast one of the finest wilderness areas in Norway. A wilderness of deep forests teeming with life, acres of cloudberry bogs, rivers large and small with fish in profusion. A wilderness in which you will have the chance to experience all of Norway's great predators: to see them, even to catch their scent: lynxes, wolverines, wolves and bears all live and hunt in the Østerdalen valley. Our insight, our engagement and our expertise -- the products of many years' experience – give you the finest opportunity for a fantastic experience in harmony with the wilderness. Let us show you why our guests voted the wilderness safari in Østerdalen "the experience of the year"!
In brief: the best of Østerdalen
We take you into the deep forest where you can hear the birds sing while watching the moose browse on green leaves and berries. This is the kingdom of the bear – here he roams free among the blueberry patches and trout streams. The region is also home to one of the few surviving populations of wild wolves. With an experienced guide you can follow the wolf tracks, take a bearing on a wolf and follow it as it explores its territory. But you can also go fishing for trout in the small rivers and perch in the lakes. This is your chance to get close to the wildlife of the wilderness deep in the forest.
