Adventure Tips
Wear Layered Clothing
The coastal weather can shift rapidly; bring breathable, moisture-wicking layers to regulate temperature during hiking and sauna sessions.
Bring Swimwear for the Sea Dip
If you’re ready for a brisk plunge into the Norwegian Sea, pack swimwear and a quick-dry towel to stay comfortable afterward.
Use Sturdy Footwear
Trails can be rocky and uneven on the mountain ascent, so hiking boots with solid ankle support are recommended.
Charge Your Camera
Your guide will take photos, but having your own camera or phone fully charged ensures you capture favorite moments too.
