Aust Agder holiday rental cottage details
River Cabin, Southern Norway.
The cabin itself has been tastefully restored, combining the original beams, log walls and stone flooring brought up to date with a modern touch of luxury – heated floors, fitted kitchen, glass bock walls, halogen lighting. This is a combination where the past meats the present.
The cabin is set in natural surroundings, beside a beautiful and miandering river. Rapids cascade through the gourges seconds away. A trip down the river by boat is to be recommended. There are other properties in the wooded area... The cabin has a terrace, grill area . The cabin is ideal for a relaxing weekend get away... or as a base for travelling to other regions in Norway... All this just two hours fom Oslo Torp.
& 45 mins Kristiansand Kjevik.
Salmon Fishing.
The situation of the cabin is ideal for Salmon fishing, the river can be seen from the property, 50 meters from the cabin are much sort after fishing spots.
Within walking distance is access to prime fishing locations, there is a private beach just a few minutes walk away on the banks of the running river.
This cabins are ideal for nature lovers... woodlands around you are full of natural treasures, such as berries (cranberries and blueberries... flowers and wild mushrooms. There are very pleasant walks from the cabin... too for the children. The cabin is equipped for 8 people. There is an open fire... and fire wood and electricity are included in the price.
The local skiing...
The local skiing...
Winter. It is about 45 minutes to the local ski centre at Gautefall... So if you would like a holiday... and do not want to be in the ski centre.. these cabins are for you...
Gautefall Ski Centre...
Gautefall Alpinsenter has 8 slopes, 1 chair lift and 5 T-bar lifts with a total capacity of 6,000 people per hour, 2 sledging hills, a fantastic snow canon, night openings with flood lit slopes every Tuesday and Friday, separate ski play area, children’s slope with free lifts for children under 7, ski school with courses in all forms skiing, including snowboarding, new snowboard arena with quarterpipe, big jumps, rails and Norway’s most challenging halfpipe. Hands-Free Snowpass makes it easy to pass through check points. Can be used at most facilities in Norway and Europe. The cross-country tracks are prepared for both classical and free-style skiing.
There are up to 100 km of prepared tracks, divided into routes of 2, 3, 5, 7, 15 and 32 km, all in varied and wonderful winter terrain. The easy tracks are at Langmyr to the west of the hotel. For the more skilled cross-country skiers we recommend the 15-km route north of the main road, which takes you past “Himmelrike”, via the lakes of Fisketjønn and Rosstjønn to Langmyr and back to the hotel/alpine centre.
If you follow this route anti-clockwise you will climb the steepest hills at the beginning and you’ll be rewarded with some great downhill slopes at the end of your trip. At the top of the alpine slopes you will find a pleasant 7-km long cross-country track, a roundtrip through an amazing winter landscape. Take the chair lift to the top and enjoy the downhill slopes on the way back.
Thrilling sledge rides . If you’ve been down the slopes on skis and snowboard and you’re looking for another adrenaline kick then hire a sledge and head for our 1,200 metre long sledging hill.
Local activities ...
Apart from skiing at the local center there are many other activities that are on offer in the immediate region...
Fishing- The lake and surrounding rivers offer plenty of oppertunities for trout perch and salmon fishing.... You can fish in the sea and fjord within about 10 minutes drive.
During the winter ice fishing on the lake is possible... and a real Norwegian experience!
Canoeing and boating....
Walking and hiking in the surrounding mountains... there are many marked trails.
In season berry and mushroom picking is a Norwegian national pastime... Cranberries and blue berries are in abundance.
Christmas time.... pick your own Christmas tree from the woods!
