Calmness of the forest – joy of the mountains

During autumn, you can use the berry mounds as a guide and pick your way through the cloudberry marshes. The most important thing about the trip is not where you go, but the pleasure and the experiences you have on the way. Take a cooling plunge in a still mountain lake, enjoy the view from a soft mossy rock, have a picnic on a blueberry picking trip and enjoy the peace, the colours and the fresh air.

There are many beautiful hiking areas in Trysil. You can walk on designated paths, choose your own routes, or join a guided mountain trip. On your trip, you can see elk, deer, game birds and other wildlife. With our free cycle and hiking map, you won’t get lost.

Family canoe trips on un-charted waterways, open lakes and watery marshland. Enjoy the peace, wildlife and a lovely picnic on the way. Take a trip with, or without a guide.

Trips on wooden rafts The river determines the speed, and you are the captain. Choose between big rafts, or a romantic raft for two. Remember that pike swim close to the shore, so bring your fishing rod. If you like, you can camp out in a tepee on a deserted island.

I‘m longing for summer...Canoeing trip on the quiet parts of the Trysil River. 11-km long trip in sturdy

river canoes. NOK 465/canoe,
