Former shepherd farm in the Visdalen valley, it’s the biggest private cabin lodge in the Jotunheim area. It was extended for guests in 1836, since the Visdalen path passed by the location and in 1881 a proper tourist statin was built, with several renovations. It has a strategic position, following one of the oldest roads between Gudbrandsdalen and Valdres, and between the two highest mountains of Norway – Galdhøppig on the west side and Glittertind on the east side. Hikers of all over the world are attracted here to challenge themselves with altitudes over 2000 m.a.s.l. or with daily tours to the glaciers around the cabin.
