Location

If you wish to experience life way into the wilderness, we suggest you try the cabin at Kalvkruvatn. It is situated on the shore of a beautiful lake 286 meters above sea level, and is among our best places for trout fishing and grouse hunting.

The cabin is simple, but nice. The living room with a kitchen part is quite spacious, and two twin bed-rooms make the cabin comfortable for 4 persons, but with the extra matresses two more persons can easily stay. Though simple there is a propane burner that makes cooking easy. No running water, but the water in the lake next to the cabin tastes better than any water you can buy in the store. With no neighbours around for miles this cabin really puts you in the wilderness!
