How much do Norwegians love camping? The number of campsites speaks volumes! Across Norway, there are over a thousand campsites scattered around. That’s equivalent to one camping site for every 385 square kilometers of land.
Camping in the valleys, immersing yourself in Norway’s forests
In the Gudbrandsdalen/Gudbrands Valley of Norway lies a hidden campsite called Randsverk. Surrounded by mountains and enveloped in Norway’s forests, here you can enjoy the cozy feeling of ancient seclusion in motorhomes, tents, or small cabins.
Of course, if you want something more exciting. At Canvas Hove in Arendal, southern Norway, nestled deep in the forest, treehouse-style tents await you, offering a somewhat “floating” camping experience!
Camping in the fjords, watching waterfalls from cruise ships
On the coast of Geirangerfjord, there’s the beloved Geiranger Camping, highly favored by locals. Facing the fjord, you can admire snow-capped peaks on both sides and reach out to the cool river water.
And on the lesser-known island of Boknafjorden, there’s a higher degree of seclusion and a closer fjord experience. In the tents of Norglamp campsite, the sound of flowing water greets you as soon as you open the door, offering a full sense of healing!
