Family Activities

Valdres is the perfect recreation area for families. Have a break from your everyday routines and be a nature explorer! Many children love the outdoors and are happy to participate in hiking or cycling tours, as long as they can set the pace. Remember to bring some sweets or other small rewards in your day pack. Fishing is another popular activity for the young family members and it’s exciting when the fish bites!

A visit to a farm or summer mountain farm (støl) is both fun and educational. You can pet the animals, go horseback riding, participate in the farm chores, and taste the traditional farm made food. Some of the farms can also provide accommodation.

Adventures with animals or wildlife and nature experiences are a great combination. In Valdres you can sign up for riding courses, guided riding tours, sleigh rides, dog sledding and even husky puppy training throughout the year. In Vaset you can join a moose safari!

The Beitostolen Summer Park is located in the alpine skiing center at Beitostølen. You'll find fun activities such as summer-bob, downhill carting, kiddie bumper boats and a gyro trampoline.
