As we promised you in the first part, we return to interesting places for campsite, this time in Central and Northern Norway.

Central Norway – mountains and wilderness

Jotunheimen – the house of giants

Jotunheimen National Park (“The House of the Giants”) is the highest mountain range in Scandinavia, with over 250 peaks exceeding 1900 m above sea level. It is a kingdom for trekking enthusiasts and wild campers.

Lom Camping
Our first offer is Lom Camping, which offers an excellent base for mountain trips. From here you can go on the most famous trekking routes in Norway, including Besseggen – a route between two lakes of different colors. Leaving the camper at the campsite, it is worth packing our backpack for 3-4 days and set off on a trail leading through the highest peaks of Scandinavia, using a network of mountain chalets and wild campers on the way. The amenities awaiting us at this campsite are: a drying room for trekking equipment, a luggage storage, a shop with maps and mountain provisions.

Rondane – Norway’s oldest national park

Rondane National Park, the first in Norway, offers milder trails in the mountains than Jotunheimen, but equally amazing landscapes. It is an ideal place for intermediate hikers.

Mysuseter Camping
Situated on the border of the park, the campsite offers comfortable positions for campers and direct access to the network of trails. Here you will find: a sauna (perfect after hiking in the mountains), self-service kitchen and outdoor equipment rental. If you like mountain hiking and want to experience the true Norwegian wilderness, with a chance to meet the rhenium and polar foxes, it is worth taking a 2-3 day hike along the Rondanestien trail, passing the loop through the most beautiful areas of the park.

Tip for wild bivouac: The most beautiful tent site can be found at Rondvatnet Lake, where wild reindeer are often observed at dawn.

Northern Norway – the land of the polar sun and aurora

Lofoten – a paradise for photographers and nature lovers

The Lofoten Archipelago is one of the most beautiful places on Earth – granite peaks emerging directly from the sea, charming fishing villages and beaches that look like postcards. This is a place worth attention if you are going to Norway especially by camper.

Moskenes Camping
Situated on the southern edge of the archipelago, the campsite offers unique views and access to the most beautiful routes.

From there we can go on a few days’ trekking Lofoten, combining wild camping with visits to picturesque fishing villages. The route from Moskenes to Fredvang leads through some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe, including the legendary Kvalvik, where we have a connection of turquoise water contrasting with mountain peaks.

Kvalvika Beach is the most beautiful camping place in Norway – a sandy bay surrounded by mountains, with excellent conditions to observe the aurora (from September to March) or the northern sun (from May to July).

Finnmark – the last European borderland

Norway’s northernmost region is the land of the harsh tundra, the Sami (Sami) culture and the North Cape, the point at which Europe ends.

Alta Strand Camping
Alta Strand Camping is the last “civilized” campsite before setting out to the desert areas of Finnmark. Leaving the motorhome in a safe base, it is worth going on a trip through the Finnmarksvidda tundra, where you can experience the life of the Sami and see wild reindeers. Wild camping in these regions is an experience of true loneliness and space.

Norway is an ideal country for travelers who are looking for a combination of comfort and adventure. Combining a camper trip with wild campers, we can enjoy organized camping and a wild campsite under the starry sky. This will allow you to see the most complete picture of what Norway has to offer. Whether you’re admiring the aurorae from a warm motorhome or a tiny tent on top of a mountain, Norway will leave you with unforgettable memories and a desire to return to this magical country of the north.
