Walking trails from the house
There are various walks starting from the park, suitable for both novice walkers and the more experienced. As you walk around, you’ll naturally spot all sorts of paths leading uphill. On one of the walks, you’ll come across the Stigane hut, a simple rest stop (gapahuk) where you can light a fire. You can follow the blue markings to the summit of Rindefjell (about a 45-minute walk) and enjoy the view over Nissedal and the Nisser. Alternatively, you can head towards Noraberget (also about 45 minutes). There are various signposts. Here, too, the view is well worth the walk.
Via Noraberget, you can walk much further still – for example, all the way to Håvenuten.
Across the road
If you cross the road and walk a short way to the right, you’ll find a small park with about 10 picnic benches. There’s a brick-built barbecue, and two small beaches (with picnic benches). You can sunbathe on the rocks, swim in the Nisser, play volleyball or enjoy the peace and quiet with your morning cup of coffee.
The rubbish sorting shed
At the start of the lane there is a Sorteringsbru (rubbish sorting shed) . The key for it is in the key box in the hallway. Rubbish must be sorted and Norwegians are very particular about this. Don’t just chuck everything into one bin – please sort it properly! There are 2 extra bins in the kitchen for food and plastic waste.
