Een reis over Hardangervidda

Ben je benieuwd hoe het is om de wilde natuur te verkennen op een ongelofelijke schaal? Dan is het tijd voor de Noorse toeristische route Hardangervidda! De route strekt zich 67 kilometer uit tussen Eidfjord in Hardanger in het westen en Haugastøl bij Geilo in het oosten. Als je doorrijdt zonder te stoppen, ben je er in ruim een uur. Alleen mis je dan wel alle fantastische bezienswaardigheden onderweg!

Hardangervidda bereik je het makkelijkst vanuit Bergen in ongeveer 2,5 uur rijden. Je kunt ook vanuit Oslo, Stavanger of Kristiansand komen, maar reken dan op 4 tot 6 uur reistijd. Een andere optie is om te vliegen naar een van deze steden en vervolgens daar een auto huren op het vliegveld.

Twintig minuten rijden ten oosten van Eidfjord brengt je naar Måbødalen. Rijd voorzichtig naar boven in deze steile en prachtige vallei met zijn unieke spiraaltunnels. Je beloning wacht bij de volgende stop: de Vøringsfossen-waterval.

Vøringsfossen is een van de beroemdste watervallen van Noorwegen met verschillende spectaculaire uitkijkplatforms. Van dichtbij heb je een adembenemend uitzicht op hoe het water 182 naar beneden stort in de diepe vallei.

Je kunt ook overnachten in het Fossli Hotel uit 1891, met uitzicht op de waterval. Er is een restaurant en café voor als je trek hebt voordat je weer verder rijdt.

Let op: De uitkijkplatforms zijn gesloten in de winter en de waterval kan dan gedeeltelijk of helemaal bevroren zijn.

Rijd je verder voorbij Vøringsfossen, dan word je al snel getrakteerd op een panoramisch uitzicht over het uitgestrekte bergplateau Hardangervidda.

Dit gebied is een paradijs voor wandelaars. Parkeer de auto, check in bij een huisje, vul je rugzak en ga op pad over een van de vele wandelpaden.

Rijd ongeveer 40 minuten verder de bergen in door een buitengewoon landschap en stop bij het Ørteren-meer om te ontspannen en alles in je op te nemen.

Er zijn twee opvallend vormgegeven rustplaatsen met uitzicht over het Ørteren-meer. Beide zijn ontworpen met minimale impact op de omgeving, geïnspireerd door bestaande natuurlijke elementen in het landschap.

Volg de weg ongeveer tien minuten naar het oosten tot je Haugastøl bereikt. Dit is het eindpunt van de route, maar je kunt net zo goed hier beginnen en naar het westen rijden.

Overnacht of geniet van een maaltijd bij Toeristencentrum Haugastøl of trek de natuur in voor een hike.

Haugastøl is ook het startpunt van de beroemde Rallarvegen: een 82 kilometer lang fietspad dat helemaal naar Flåm loopt, door prachtige landschappen en hooggelegen bergbestemmingen zoals Finse, Hallingskeid en Myrdal.

De volledige route is meestal begin juli sneeuw- en ijsvrij. Het fietsseizoen loopt tot ongeveer eind september.

Hjølmaberget: at the end of the road ( 60.371412, 7.169371) Map: Hardangervidda West, 1:50.000. Buy hiking maps at the local tourist offices, or order a map online, or by e-mailing the Norwegian Trekking Association at [email protected]. This is a hike in the Norwegian high mountains. What you need to know before hiking in Hardangervidda: In Hardangervidda you are in the wilderness. There are no shops, doctors, restaurants, ATMs, or telephones. You can be several days hiking from the nearest road. You can buy provisions and stay overnight the lodges operated by the Norwegian Trekking Association. You can pay by leaving a cash payment, or by filling out a payment form. In the staffed lodges you can pay by debit or credit card. Read more here. Hiking is possible when Hardangervidda is snow free, normally in July and August. Winter can come quickly and without mercy, even early in September. Do not put yourself and others at risk by hiking outside the season, or by not being properly prepared and equipped. Every year there are tourists who are rescued by local volunteers. Bring warm, water and wind proof clothing. The weather in the high mountains is different from the weather down by the fjords. Be prepared for low temperatures, also in the summer. Weather can change rapidly and unpredictably. It can be good weather down by the fjord, and be foggy and cold in the mountains. Always have a topographical map (in at least scale 1:100.000) and compass (and even a GPS). In Norway, even if a trail is marked, it can be difficult to see it, and a map and compass enables you to orientate. Be especially aware of fog in Hardangervidda, which is not a problem in lower areas. Buy hiking maps at the local tourist offices, or order a map online, or by e-mailing the Norwegian Trekking Association at [email protected] can also print you own topographical map (for free) in scale 1:25.000 or 1:50.000 by using an online map tool. The quality of hiking maps for sale is much better, as the paper quality is weather proof. The maps for sale contain more relevant information about marked trails, estimated time for the marked trails, mountain lodges etc. If you travel on a low budget and do not want to spend money on appropriate clothing and map and compass, it is best to take day hikes, see list of all our beautiful hikes here. Distances in the wilderness are given in time, NOT kilometers. Norwegian standard walking time is a fast pace. You will find this information given in hours in tour descriptions and in hiking maps. You need to add time to the standard walking time, and also add time for breaks. Which means that an 6 hour hike is really a full day's hike. An 8 hour hike is long day's hike. Be aware of height differences; 4 km in even landscape is very different in 4 km with an ascent of 1,000 meters! Downhill is just as demanding as uphill, especially if you carry a heavy back pack. If you plan to hike several days in Hardangervidda, you need to be physically fit for it. You have no access to electricity in the mountains; bring enough batteries. You use more power in cold weather. You do NOT have mobile coverage in the mountains, and NO access to internet. If something happens, you will most likely not be able to phone for help. It can be several days hiking to the nearest road. As a rule you can drink water in Hardangervidda, but there is no guarantee that it is safe. Be especially aware of the water in areas where many people go (like the trail to Trolltunga), and in smaller ponds. Take all waste with you. Nature in the high mountains is extremely vulnerable. Do not disturb animals and birds, do not destroy vegetation. From 15th April to 15th September making fire near or in woodlands is prohibited. If you fish in lakes and streams and rivers you need a permit from the land owner. Buy fishing permits online or at the lodges in Hardangervidda, or at the local tourist offices.

It is possible to stay overnight in the trekking association's lodge in Stavali. The next day return the same way back to Kinsarvik, or follow the marked trails across Hardangervidda to Lofthus. On the way down to Lofthus the view to the Hardangerfjord is great. Seson: July-August Time: Kinsarvik-Stavali about 6-7 hours, Stavali –Lofthus about 7-8 hours. Accommodation: Stavali Mountain Lodge. Bus: Skyss bus line 990 between Kinsarvik and Lofthus. Timetable.

    Hardangervidda National park from Geilo and the North East side

    GEILO – Gateway to Hardangervidda and Hallingskarvet National Parks Geilo is a national park village that serves as the gateway to two of Norway's most spectacular national parks: the vast Hardangervidda National Park and the majestic Hallingskarvet National Park. Located in Hol municipality, Geilo lies in the valley between these two natural gems. Whether you prefer short or short or longer day hikes or multi-day adventures with overnight stays, Geilo is the perfect base—ideal for those planning to cross the entire Hardangervidda plateau. Strategically situated at the meeting point of Hallingdal and Numedal, Geilo offers numerous starting points for both hiking and cycling in both valleys. Hardangervidda National Park Hardangervidda National Park spans parts of Buskerud, Vestfold and Telemark, and Vestland counties and is the largest mountain plateau in Northern Europe. The eastern side is characterized by flat, open plains, while the west features more rugged terrain. Here, you can enjoy year-round hiking, fishing, and hunting. The summer season typically starts in late June when the snow melts, but it's essential to check trail conditions (only in Norwegian) to ensure that summer bridges are in place. During winter from December to Mai, marked ski trails lead to DNT cabins, and trail reports (only in Norwegian) are available at www.dnt.no. There is often more information on the Norwegian websites, use a translate program to get the most out of it.

CYCLING ROUTES - come to Geilo by bike If you're traveling from Southern Norway, you can follow National Cycle Route 5 through the scenic Numedal Valley. At Rødberg, you have three route options: Smådøldalen: Ideal for nature enthusiasts who want to avoid traffic. This picturesque gravel road winds through the forest, offering a peaceful and serene experience. Highly recommended. Tunhovd: Prefer asphalt? Cycle toward Tunhovd road 2806 on a quiet, low-traffic road, then continue to Dagali. County Road 40: If you're looking for a faster route, stay on County Road 40 and follow Cycle Route 5 north. Be prepared for steep climbs and moderate traffic. You can also choose the National Cycle Route 4 leading you up through the Hallingdal Valley. From Geilo to Rallarvegen To experience the iconic Rallarvegen, we recommend taking the train from Geilo to Haugastøl for a safer and more comfortable ride. However, if you prefer cycling the entire way, you can follow Highway 7 for 28 km. Be aware of heavy traffic and a high number of tourists on this route. For safety, wear bright clothing, use reflectors, and set your bike lights to flashing mode for better visibility. Hallingdal Route and Mjølkevegen For another scenic option, follow National Cycle Route 4 along Highway 7 through Hallingdal. If you're seeking an alternative to Rallarvegen, try Mjølkevegen from Geilo. This route offers stunning landscapes and less traffic, perfect for those looking for a varied and enjoyable cycling experience. SUMMER on Hardangervidda Hiking - Discover the heart of nature Hiking is the most popular activity on Hardangervidda—and for good reason! The area offers a wide range of trails, from easy day hikes to challenging expeditions over several days. From Geilo, you can take the summer lift to your first mountain cabin or combine your hike with a boat trip. Families will find many well-marked day hikes, while experienced hikers can tackle Ustetind, rewarded with spectacular views of both national parks. For detailed hiking suggestions and inspiration, visit geilo.com and select "Hiking/Trail Suggestions" from the menu. You’ll find an interactive map from Outdoor Active where you can download trail descriptions, GPX files, and elevation profiles. It’s possible to reach Hardangervidda without a car, though some planning is required. Buses and trains offer good alternatives, especially if you plan for an overnight stay along the way. The hiking season typically runs from late June until the first snow. Check the opening times of the mountain cabins at ut.no. Water from streams and lakes is safe to drink. Keep your phone on airplane mode to save battery, as there are areas with limited mobile coverage. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a leash at all times. Respect the reindeer, stick to marked trails, and follow Norway’s Right to Roam (Allemannsretten). For weather forecast you can use yr.no website and app. Cycling - Adventure on two wheels Hardangervidda offers fantastic cycling opportunities both to and on the plateau.

The route to Verpestølen, featuring great swimming spots at Ustevatnet. Tinnhølen, a scenic destination deep into the plateau. Cycling is only permitted on tractor roads—cycling on trails is prohibited. During wet conditions or early in the season, avoid cycling to protect the environment. Fishing - Cast your line into serenity Hardangervidda is home to numerous excellent fishing lakes. Around Geilo, Ustedalsfjorden is easily accessible, and several idyllic mountain lakes are located near Haugastøl. Fishing permits can be purchased through perfish.no from Geilo Hunting and Fishing Association.

The Hardangervidda region offers a variety of exciting activities, including: Guided hikes and cycling tours, Rafting, Canyoning and Horseback riding. For a complete overview of summer activities, visit geilo.com. WINTER in the Hardangervidda Winter on Hardangervidda is a magical experience stretching from late October to early June, depending on the weather. Although snow often falls early, conditions are most stable from mid-February. Snow can last until May, and in some years, you might even ski in June! Before heading out, check snow conditions on the DNT website or contact the mountain cabins directly. Statens Vegvesen webcams also provide real-time snow conditions. Snowshoeing – Freedom to Explore Snowshoeing is a fantastic way to immerse yourself in the winter landscape. There are no marked trails—walk where you please and carve your own path through the snow. You can find some suggestions for walks on the interactive map in the lower part of this side. For a true adventure, pack firewood and a tent, strap on a headlamp, and spend the night under the stars. No prior experience is needed, and snowshoes can be rented from Slaatta Skisenter or Geilo Aktiv. For guided tours, visit geilo.com for exciting options. Cross-Country Skiing – Magical Trails Across the Plateau For cross-country skiing enthusiasts, Geilo offers an extensive trail network. One popular Hardangervidda loop is Veslerunden, starting from Geilo and leading to Hakkesetstølen. Alternatively, take the Vestlia chairlift, continue to Grønebakken, head towards Ustetind, then descend to Ustaoset before returning to Geilo via Prestholt. This route offers a perfect blend of challenge and breathtaking views of both national parks. For updated trail conditions, visit skisporet.no or follow local trail groups on Facebook for news and photos. There are several options for lessons and rental in Geilo for example with Geilo Skiskole and Geilo Aktiv. Backcountry Skiing – Cabin-to-Cabin in a Winter Wonderland The quintessential Hardangervidda winter experience is ski touring between mountain cabins along marked winter trails. The snow-covered plateau stretches endlessly ahead, and a warm meal and cozy bed await at each hut. This adventure is suited for experienced skiers—proper clothing, maps, compass, food, and water are essential. Check snow conditions on the DNT website and cabin opening times on ut.no. Backcountry skis can be rented at Geilo Skishop, conveniently located near the train station by Dr. Holms Hotel. The season runs from mid-April until Easter. Fatbiking – Cycling on Snow Ever tried cycling on snow? Fatbikes let you glide across winter terrain with their wide tires, perfect for navigating snowy surfaces without leaving deep tracks. Around Geilo, you can explore walking paths, cabin roads, and plowed mountain roads. Vestlia offers special trails designed for fatbiking. You can rent a bike or join a guided tour. To respect the groomed cross-country trails, follow these tips: Deflate your tires slightly to reduce your impact. Wait at least an hour after grooming machines have passed. Be considerate—skiers don’t expect a fast, silent bike on the trail. Thank you for respecting the trails and your fellow users! Dogsledding - Follow the tracks in the snow Nothing is more exotic than driving your own dog sedge trough the winter lanscape. Feel the power of the dogs and the wind in your face. There are several companies offer both shorter and longer tours in Geilo and later in the season on the Hardangervidda. MORE INFORMATION Interested in visiting?

Troltunga makes a good end to this route. If you only want a day trip to Trolltunga, read about it here. Season: July and August Time: First day: Kinsarvik-Stavali about 6-7 hours Second day: Stavali-Torehytte about 7 hours Third day: Torehytta-Tyssevassbu about 6 hours Fourth Day: Tyssevassbu-Trolltunga-Skjeggedal about 7-8 hours Lodges on the route: Stavali, 1024 masl.

Buy hiking maps at the local tourist offices, or order a map online, or by e-mailing the Norwegian Trekking Association at [email protected]. This is a hike in the Norwegian high mountains. What you need to know before hiking in Hardangervidda: In Hardangervidda you are in the wilderness. There are no shops, doctors, restaurants, ATMs, or telephones. You can be several days hiking from the nearest road. You can buy provisions and stay overnight the lodges operated by the Norwegian Trekking Association. You can pay by leaving a cash payment, or by filling out a payment form. In the staffed lodges you can pay by debit or credit card. Read more here. Hiking is possible when Hardangervidda is snow free, normally in July and August. Winter can come quickly and without mercy, even early in September. Do not put yourself and others at risk by hiking outside the season, or by not being properly prepared and equipped. Every year there are tourists who are rescued by local volunteers. Bring warm, water and wind proof clothing. The weather in the high mountains is different from the weather down by the fjords. Be prepared for low temperatures, also in the summer. Weather can change rapidly and unpredictably. It can be good weather down by the fjord, and be foggy and cold in the mountains. Always have a topographical map (in at least scale 1:100.000) and compass (and even a GPS). In Norway, even if a trail is marked, it can be difficult to see it, and a map and compass enables you to orientate. Be especially aware of fog in Hardangervidda, which is not a problem in lower areas. Buy hiking maps at the local tourist offices, or order a map online, or by e-mailing the Norwegian Trekking Association at [email protected] can also print you own topographical map (for free) in scale 1:25.000 or 1:50.000 by using an online map tool. The quality of hiking maps for sale is much better, as the paper quality is weather proof. The maps for sale contain more relevant information about marked trails, estimated time for the marked trails, mountain lodges etc. If you travel on a low budget and do not want to spend money on appropriate clothing and map and compass, it is best to take day hikes, see list of all our beautiful hikes here. Distances in the wilderness are given in time, NOT kilometers. Norwegian standard walking time is a fast pace. You will find this information given in hours in tour descriptions and in hiking maps. You need to add time to the standard walking time, and also add time for breaks. Which means that an 6 hour hike is really a full day's hike. An 8 hour hike is long day's hike. Be aware of height differences; 4 km in even landscape is very different in 4 km with an ascent of 1,000 meters! Downhill is just as demanding as uphill, especially if you carry a heavy back pack. If you plan to hike several days in Hardangervidda, you need to be physically fit for it. You have no access to electricity in the mountains; bring enough batteries. You use more power in cold weather. You do NOT have mobile coverage in the mountains, and NO access to internet. If something happens, you will most likely not be able to phone for help. It can be several days hiking to the nearest road. As a rule you can drink water in Hardangervidda, but there is no guarantee that it is safe. Be especially aware of the water in areas where many people go (like the trail to Trolltunga), and in smaller ponds. Take all waste with you. Nature in the high mountains is extremely vulnerable. Do not disturb animals and birds, do not destroy vegetation. From 15th April to 15th September making fire near or in woodlands is prohibited. If you fish in lakes and streams and rivers you need a permit from the land owner. Buy fishing permits online or at the lodges in Hardangervidda, or at the local tourist offices.

    Rallarvegen

    Rallarvegen – the navvy road – runs through a dramatic, lush and challenging landscape rich in culture, history and unique nature. The road was built by hand at the turn of the last century to transport equipment and food during the construction of the Bergen railway. Today Rallarvegen is one of Norway’s most popular bicycle routes and runs 80 km from Haugastøl – Finse – Hallingskeid by Vatnahalsen to Flåm. Along the way you can learn more about Finse, the Bergen railway and Rallarmuseet (the Navvy Museum) at Finse. You can add an extra 23 km by travelling east along highway 7 from Geilo to Haugastøl and from Myrdal to Voss. If you come from the west, you can continue into the mountains around Hallingdal. Because of the difference in altitude from Haugastøl, 988 m.a.s.l, through Finse 1222 m.a.s.l. Most people chose to take the bicycle train to Finse before returning to Geilo. Rallarvegen starts at Haugastøl and has a slight ascent up to Storurdi and Finse. Partly on rough surface (pebbles and gravel) the route runs west, slightly ascending up to Fagernut and then down to Hallingskeid. The road through Klevagjelet to Myrdal is steep and partly unsecured, so you should be careful and it is recommended to step off the bike. From Myrdal, by Vatnahalsen Hotel, there is a steep descent down the 21 road bends (Myrdalssvingene). From Kårdalen (summer dairy with Norwegian goat cheese) the last lap runs through the lush and dramatic Flåmsdalen down to Flåm. The train journey by Flåmsbanen is a highlight. The 20 km by train between the mountain stations Myrdal and Flåm by the fjord take about 55 minutes. Along the way you will see some of the most magnificent Norwegian mountains, with an ever-changing panorama of mountains and thundering waterfalls. The train runs slowly or stops completely to let the passengers enjoy the finest views. At Myrdal Flåmsbanen corresponds with the Bergen railway back to Geilo. Distance: From Geilo: 103 km. From Haugastøl: 80 km. If you wish to take your time and stop many times you should allow for spending 3-4 days. Accommodation is available at tourist cabins and hotel. However, it is also possible to cover the whole distance in one day. Surface: Fine gravel road Rent your bike at Haugastøl 1000moh!

    In Geilo, you will find hiking trails that are suitable for everyone, with a panoramic view of the Norwegian mountains. Here, you can pick nature experiences from the top shelf. Take the shortcut to the Hardangervidda plateau with the chairlift up from Vestlia, or take an electric bike up to the foot of the Hallingskarvet mountains and go to the top, or enjoy yourself around the Ustedalsfjorden lake, within walking distance from the village center. There are so many possibilities in Geilo! A couple of hours of close contact with nature is an exciting journey for young and old people. The longer trips offer elevation, mountain lakes, silence, and as many kilometers as you want to register on your training app. Rest areas and cabins, which offer a well-deserved break and food, are the reward that awaits those who reach their goal. Hiking works as therapy for body and soul, so let yourself be inspired by the mountain's play of colours, silence, and the views that appear around every corner. Enjoy good food and drink on your return, and feel how well the mountain takes care of you. Check out our recommended trips Summer Lift In summer, the chairlift at Vestlia takes you to the top of the mountain. A perfect starting point for short and long hikes into the mountains. Already 1.5 km into the mountains you will find the Hakkesetstølen service cabin, and several nice hiking opportunities. Tip! Take the round trip of about 8 km from Hakkesetstølen to Birgithovda - perhaps Geilo's very best view?

    Fekjo cultural heritage site

    Fekjo cultural heritage site

    In Fekjo cultural heritage park there are many cultural relics from the prehistoric and historic times. The burial mounds in the area is from the Viking Age. We know this because 10 of the approximately 20 burial mounds were investigated in 1923. Items that were found in some of the mounds were all from 900s, ie Viking. Among the findings was a small ax blade of iron, a sewing needle and key to a casket. It is interesting that most of the investigated barrows were female graves. The hiking trail of Ustedalsfjorden Round is going through this area, so it is easy accessible by foot. Coal pits Within the Cultural Heritage Park was registered 7 coal pits and ironworks. Today there are only a few coal pits left and the ironworks plant is gone. The charcoal which was made in the pits, were either used in iron production or in the smithy on the farm. Throughout Ustedalen there has been an unusually high activity in iron production from both Viking and medieval times. The many coal pits and ironworks plants show that it was made more iron than was needed locally. Iron was probably an important commodity for people in Ustedalen in Iron Age and Middle Ages. Haybarn At Fekjo there is an old hay barn and a barn. Until approx 80 years ago it was a mountain farm here. After mowing, hay was stored in the barn before it was driven to the farm with horse and sleigh in winter conditions. An old stone fence in the park is probably a distinction between hayfields and pastures. Switched operation and grazing on Fekjo made an open landscape. After stiff operation ended, overgrown area gradually more and more again and another vegitasjonstype took over. In the heritage park one is seeking to lead the area back to the old culture landscape by cutting the grass and by letting sheep graze in the park in spring and autumn. In Fekjo cultural heritage park you can also experience exciting landscape art. There is a small parking lot adjacent to Fekjo Cultural Heritage Park, and driving west to Tuftebruvegen is not permitted. It is recommended to use Fløtagutu, or park by Highway 7 and walk via the cabin roads down to Fekjo. Please respect the area, no camping on the parking, please.

Weg- en verkeersinformatie

Plan je route, bekijk verkeersmeldingen, veerbootinformatie en meer via Statens Vegvesen.

Je kunt de Vegvesen-app ook downloaden in de App Store of in Google Play.

Goed om te weten voordat je vertrekt

Door de hoogte van het gebied en het onvoorspelbare weer is de beste tijd voor deze rit tussen april en oktober.

De weg blijft 's winters open, maar vaak rijdt het verkeer met een konvooisysteem en zijn er tijdelijke afsluitingen. Grazende rendieren kunnen ook voor wegafsluitingen zorgen. Vermijd deze route in de wintermaanden tenzij je ervaren bent met rijden onder moeilijke winterse omstandigheden.

De uitkijkplatforms en het gebied rond de Vøringsfossen-waterval zijn 's winters gesloten vanwege gladheid door sneeuw en ijs.

Informatie voor fietsers: Een goed natuurlijk vertrekpunt is Haugastøl. Let op: de weg is 's zomers vaak druk en het weer kan hier snel omslaan. Door verschillende steenlawines is de oude weg afgesloten en de weg door de Måbødalen-vallei is vanwege meerdere tunnels gesloten voor fietsers. Wil je Eidfjord bereiken en verder richting het westen? Neem dan de bus vanaf het plateau.
