DNT Øitangen is situated on the northern tip of the island of Jomfruland, just off the coast of Kragerø. Located in the heart of Jomfruland National Park, you will find yourself surrounded by pebble beaches, ancient oak forests, and rich wildlife. Because there is no bridge connection to the mainland, the island offers a completely peaceful car-free escape.
