The Hardangervidda

Hardangervidda is unique in so many ways, even on an international scale. It is Europe’s largest mountain plateau, consisting of 10.000 km2  of absolutely fascinating scenery, and the home of thousands of wild reindeer – the largest flock in Europe. 3.400 km2 of the plateau’s total area have been declared a  National Park – Norway’s largest. Hardangervidda is also the home of several bird and animal species which have almost become extinct. The artic flora and fauna on the plateau is most varied and interesting, as Hardangervidda is the only place in the world where species belonging in a western climate and those thriving in an eastern, inland climate can  be found in the same area. The landscape on Hardangervidda is also very varied.  On the western side it is wild and dramatic with deep and narrow valleys  and majestic waterfalls and glaciers, whilst the eastern landscape  is more gentle. The geological formations on the plateau are a  result of millions of years of Hardangervidda history. Mankind  has survived and hunted on Hardangervidda since the Stone Age,  and even today the good hunting, fishing and wide pastures for  livestock are of great importance to the mountain villagers. Throughout the years the locals have developed quite a tradition in  taking good care of visiting hikers. The area is seamed with trails for  all stages of proficiency, and along them lodges and cabins for overnight use have been built at strategic intervals. Hardangervidda is excellent for hikes for the Whole family,  as children have no problems at all in coping.
