A time for discovery

The landscape surrounding Høvringen is impressive. A comprehensive network of marked paths carries you into the mighty mountain landscape of Rondane. You can choose from short walks in ancient pine forests, walks in easy mountain terrain or more demanding walks to one of Rondane's many peaks over 2000 metres a.s.l. There are numerous small and large mountain lakes, rivers and streams which give good opportunities for a bit of fishing or a refreshing swim.

The late summer and early autumn in Rondane has a charm of it's own. Mother nature has already begun to prepare for a long winter, and can show off a sparkling explosion of colour without comparison. By then, you'll have more of Rondane all to yourself, giving you the space and time to peacefully and quietly enjoy the mountain landscape at it's best. Late summer and autumn is also the time to collect berries and fungi. Blueberries and mountain cranberries cover the forest floor of the valley sides, and on the mountains you can hunt for hidden gold- cloudberries.

In addition to the numerous hiking opportunities, Høvringen offers a wide numer of other activities like fishing, mountain horseback-riding, mountain biking and boat rental. If you feel like taking your car for a ride, Høvringen is an excellent starting point. The well known rafting-rivers of Sjoa, Otta and Lågen are reachable in less than an hours drive. There is also plenty of local culture and history to dig into through Gudbrandsdalen valley during your stay in Høvringen. We can recommend a visit to Jørundgard Medieval Centre, the old preserved farms in Heidal or a walk through the world of Kristin Lavransdatter.
