Surrounded by forest, with views of the mountain peaks, lies this atmospheric modern cabin. Here you get a traditional cabin atmosphere in a modern setting. Inside, the cabin is characterized by being furnished with solid untreated pine - the feeling of bringing nature inside is emphasized by both this, the beautiful light and the large windows. The choice of materials makes the cabin warm and cozy, both when it comes to textiles, furniture and the cabin's foundation. This, in combination with a clean, modern expression, makes the cabin a lovely place to take a break from the city.
The centerpiece of the cabin is the stunning fireplace and seating area in the kitchen-living room, which extends into the dining area. Surrounded by windows and views of the forest and mountains, this is a space that can be used for much more than just the day's meals. The cabin is full of smart solutions, making it feel naturally divided into areas that make it easy to both enjoy time together and retreat.
The area around the cabin offers great hiking opportunities and challenges for both young and old, so there are plenty of opportunities to plan your trip according to your fitness and ambitions. After a long day of hiking, you can leave your bikes and skis in the outdoor storage room before cooking dinner together in the spacious kitchen or grilling outside. On the terrace you'll find comfy armchairs and plenty of space to enjoy the first and last rays of sunshine in good company. The loft is designed for the little ones to relax after a long day of adventure, while the daybed is perfect for curling up with a good book while dinner is in the oven.

We are a lively family of six with four children aged 9-15. After spending several summers in Jotunheimen, where we experienced how fantastic it was for both young and old to master summit hikes, discover nature together, try our luck at fishing and cycling in the mountains, we chose to build our cabin here - in Sjodalen Fjellgrend.
When we were building the cabin, it was important for us to build with minimal encroachment on nature, and the cabin is built with great close-up views and the mountain peaks of Griningsdalen in the distance, as well as large windows that let nature in completely - so that the nature experiences do not stop at the cabin door. Emphasis was placed on creating a place where we could spend time together as a family and retreat at the same time. That's why there's plenty of space and separate bedrooms for everyone.
The area around the cabin offers lots of great experiences, with fishing trips to Ingulsjøen being the kids' clear favorite. Here you can see the fish from the shore and enjoy the view of the Nautgardsmassivet massif on the way to the cabin. There are lots of great hikes in the area, where Nautgardstinden, Knutshø, Glittertind, Bygdin and Besstrondrundhøe with panoramic views are just a few of the family's favorites. The youngsters are happy to spend a day on the alpine slopes at Lemonsjøen and there are endless opportunities for cross-country skiing, where you can experience the mountains from both groomed trails and spectacular mountain peaks.
