Search Things to Do

Eidfjord is the perfect starting point for hiking pleasure on and around the Hardangervidda.

Few places offer more options, activities and challenges in nature. Here, you have the Hardangervidda right on your doorstep and you can relax to your heart’s content. You can take long hikes in the vast wilderness or take shorter walks lasting just a few hours.

The Hardangervidda has a good network of marked trails and places to stay at appropriate intervals. A large part of the Eidfjord municipality is situated on the Hardangervidda plateau. So we’re geared up to arrange everything you need for fabulous hiking and amazing experiences on and around the Hardangervidda.

Eidfjord is the perfect starting point. From here, national scenic route 7 heads over the Hardangervidda, where you will ?nd several mountain lodges which offer a good base for your hikes. If you would like to drive a little further into the plateau, then you can turn off route 7 and drive on the 11 km long toll road from Tråastølen, which is close to Dyranut

(1245 m above sea level), down to Trondsbu at Lake Tinnhølen. Then you are in the national park. You also can turn off in Øvre Eidfjord and drive up the narrow 10 km long road into the Hjølmadalen valley up to 900 m above sea level (it’s not suitable for vehicles longer than

6 m). From Halne, you can take the boat “Halnekongen” 13 km over the lake Halnefjorden into the Hardangervidda.

On the Hardangervidda there are amazing opportunities to see birds, plants and wild animals at close hand. Please protect our vital and abundant nature so that it can be enjoyed by future generations. Come and experience harmony with nature. Re-energize yourself and

take home memories that will last a lifetime. We wish you a very warm welcome to Eidfjord – the kingdom of true mountaineers.
