Putten Seter

The buildings are arranged around a traditional setertun, or farmyard, giving Putten Seter its unique character. Stay either self-catering, full-board, or order traditional rustic Norwegian meals when it suits you, at our mountain cafe.

Putten Seter nestles low on the south side of Formokampen mountain, at the entrance to Rondane, Norway’s first national park. The farm is located in the middle of a network of ski trails and footpaths and has a wonderful view towards Jotunheimen. Rondane National Park has excellent walking terrain and promises a great natural experience for children and adults, in both summer and winter.
