Newly built architectural classic with a great view

Surrounded by forest and mountain scenery in Flå, you'll find this modern cabin. Here you will have a fantastic view of Sørbølnatten, Høgevarde and Krøderen, and many opportunities for nature experiences on foot, on skis or by bike.

Inside the cabin, the ceilings are high, airy and bright. The long windows in three directions bring you into close contact with the natural surroundings. Much of the furniture has been designed specifically for the cabin, such as the day bed, sofa, benches and small stools. The hosts designed and built the kitchen themselves, and through deliberate and careful interior design choices have created a whole that pays homage to the architectural classic Ålhytta from 1966.

The space-efficient cabin is not very large, but with functional and well thought-out solutions, as well as high ceilings, it feels spacious even if there are several people on a cabin trip together. Many people can brush their teeth at the same time at the long sink in the bathroom, and two toilets save time in the docking queue when many people are on a trip together. In the hallway there is plenty of space for many jackets and shoes, and in the kitchen corner you can cut vegetables from both sides of the kitchen counter while someone draws at the dining table.

The different seasons each have their own activities. January starts with snow-covered trees and freshly prepared ski trails; if it's a bit windy, it's nice to stay down in the forest, but if it's calm, the open expanses in the mountains beckon. When the snow disappears, you can get out your bike or climb the peaks around the cabin, such as the mighty Sørbølnatten. You can also stroll at a leisurely pace up the blue-marked path to the shelter where you can sit down and enjoy the view, or perhaps light a fire and have a barbecue.

When summer arrives and the temperature rises, it's great to take a dip either in the swimming hole down by the river, in a mountain lake or in Store Veåsvann, which has a jetty from which you can jump off. If you're running errands down in the valley, the long sandy beach in Gulsvik, where the Hallingdalselva river flows into Krøderen, is recommended. Late summer and fall is the time to pick berries such as blueberries, cloudberries and lingonberries. When you get home to the cabin, you can sit together in the cabin wall and clean the catch, before frying pancakes on the campfire and enjoying them with fresh blueberries.
