Fra turen Sandhaug - Rauhelleren

Cabin-to-cabin hikes

Sandhaug is located in the middle of Hardangervidda and is a natural destination for a number of trips from cabin to cabin on Hardangervidda.

3-day hike to Sandhaug from Tinnhølen

If you want a weekend with a real taste of the vast Hardangervidda, combined with short day marches and total relaxation, the trip to Sandhaug from Tinnhølen is recommended. 

Hardangervidda across

This tour takes you through all the types of landscape on Hardangervidda. From the wild in the west, across the flat plateau, towards the slightly hilly east. The trip starts with one of the most beautiful ascents to the plateau, from Kinsarvik up Husedalen to Stavali tourist cabin. 

Follow these tips when traveling in mountainous areas with wild reindeer:

  • Follow marked trails
  • Stay still if you see wild reindeer, so that they can move away undisturbed
  • Use binoculars and keep your distance
  • Keep dogs on a leash
  • Stay low in the terrain and move in the wind so that the animals do not get the smell from you
  • Keep an eye on the dog and follow the rules on leashing

Dyranut-Sandhaug

You can also hike directly to Sandhaug from Dyranut Turisthytte, which is located right next to Highway 7.
