Hiking
Bårdsgarden is a traditional Norwegian mountain farm that's been welcoming travellers since the late 19th century. This self-service DNT cabin has many amenities for weary hikers. The cabin was made famous by Berit Brænne’s children's book trilogy: Tørris gutten fra Storlidalen ('The Boy of the Mountains' in the UK). The tales were inspired by life at Bårdsgarden.
