For the next 3 months we will be kayaking our way north, enjoying Norway from new point of view. In reality we will not be traveling that much northward, because we will be paddling in and out of fjords along the coast. The west coast of Norway and the fjords connected are one of the … Continue reading Gearing up for next mission
After many days with very high temperatures and awesome weather, we finally arrive in Aurlandsvangen. The last day was challenging physically, since we had to walk the last 10 km on foot. The 13 km after our last camp we could do normally on skis, since the terrain declined at a slow rate and we … Continue reading Arriving at Aurlandsvangen
We are only a few days away from arriving at Aurlandsvangen at Sognefjorden. The last days have been truly awesome, constant sunshine and fantastic temperatures. We are enjoying the last days of snow before the landscape abruptly will change, going steeply in to the fjord and the snow will give way to the spring and … Continue reading Walking on sunshine
Today we have been on our great expedition for exactly 2 months. Time flies and we have already experienced so many wonderful and exiting things, it’s so nice to know that we still have over a year ahead of us to more of this stuff. To celebrate the day, we decided to see if we … Continue reading On the road for exactly 2 months
After staying for some days at Skarvereiret, grounded by the weather, we continued our journey over Hallingskarvet. Our next camp is at a new cool cabin, Lordehytta (Lords hut), built in 1880 by the eccentric lord Garvagh. It was originally built as a hunting cabin and was the finest one amongst the other cabins that … Continue reading From one cool cabin to another
Before we head directly to Songnefjorden, where we have our kayaks are stored, we are going to cross Hallingskarvet, one of Europe’s largest mountain plateaus. We are now staying at a cabin called Skarvereiret (Translated it would mean the Cormorants nest), which is placed on top of a 150 meter high cliff, overlooking Hardangervidda and … Continue reading Staying at Norway’s coolest cabin
We have now crossed Hardangervidda national park and the last couple of days have been really great. The weather has been nice and we experienced a weather phenomenon called halo. Halo is a phenomenon where you get vertical rainbow, but it is not a rainbow, since there is no rain. But the light interacts with … Continue reading Crossing Hardangervidda national park
Today we had the joy of meeting the renound dog sled racer Robert Sørlie. Robert is one of Norway’s most decorated dog sled racer and is the only non-American that has won the Iditarod race in Alaska. He and his friend, Henrik Wessel, arrived while we were sitting outside in the sun at Sandhaug lodge. … Continue reading Meeting Norway’s best dog sled racer
While being on a trip like this, we lose almost all sense of time. We knew that it was the week of Easter (because of all the people going on ski trips), but we did not have a clue that today was Easter evening. So, when we got to Sandhaug (a DNT staffed lodge), we … Continue reading Easter evening
Ice fishing is one great way to get fresh and healthy food during winter expeditions, when you mostly live of dried foods. So when the weather forecast told us there was going to be a day with perfect weather, we decided to take a day of and do some ice fishing. And what better way … Continue reading Ice fishing the comfy way
