Nestled in a wooded area of the site, with picnic benches, hammocks and a fire pit close-by, these teepee tents give your Scout and Guide group a taste of rural Norwegian life. There’s also the option of small, simple, yet comfortable cabin accommodation which comprises of bunk-bed accommodation with shared facilities across the site.
