Enjoying nature

Whether on a walk, a hike, on the mountains or by the sea, the surrounding area offers breathtaking fauna and flora. At the campsite, the diversity of birdlife is fascinating and - with a bit of luck - you can watch sea eagles, harbour porpoises, seals, otters or puffins from your pitch/campsite.

Boat hire

Our guests can hire a 16ft. 25 hp outboard boat. Note: We do not have a fishing tourism licence, i.e. we only allow fishing for daily distortion.

Kayak hire

You can hire sit-on-top kayaks and ex-plore the fantastic natural surroundings by water. Our sheltered bay, Oppmyre-bogen, invites you on an unforgettable discovery tour.
