Walking and Hiking

One of the most popular areas for a walking holiday is Gala with gentle hills and wonderful scenery. Easily accessed by road, train or bus from Oslo, it is about 3 hours journey to Vinstra, where a taxi will take you the final 17km up the mountain. Walk around Lake Svintjern or Lake Jetningen and see where Peer Gynt is performed near Valsfjell. Areas around Bergen are also very popular with walkers.
