Experience pleasant Rauland in Telemark

In pleasant Rauland in Telemark you will find Rauland Camping, which is open all year round. The site is located close to beautiful nature and the start of the Hardangervidda plateau, and is run by Eivind. Here he shares several tips on what visitors can do in the area.

We at Campio visit Rauland camping on an autumn day in October. It is fresh, foggy and rainy, and the campsite is full of beautiful autumn colours.

Eivind tells us about the hiking trail up to Falkeriset, which suits most people. Here there is a paved hiking trail all the way to the top - and it goes even further if you want a long walk. Here you get to experience beautiful nature at the foot of the Hardangervidda plateau.

On the way to Falkeriset we observe bighorn sheep in the mountains. Here it is possible to buy a hunting license and try your luck. We also drive past Telemark Husky, a dog centre for exciting experiences and dog sledding in the winter.

In the summer Eivind recommends visiting Totak - a great lake for swimming and fishing, and salmon fishing. The former Alpine Centre at Rauland Camping has had trails for cross-country and alpine skiing in the winter, and works well for randonnées when not in operation. There is also a nice hill here for mountain biking and frisbee golf in the summer.

In Rauland there are many trails for skiing and snowmobiling, and it is possible to rent equipment. Rauland Camping has snowmobiling that you can rent in the winter!

What Eivind likes best about using Campio as a booking system is that you get a quick booking confirmation via SMS and e-mail when travelers pre-book. This makes it easy to clean and get ready for your guests to arrive! Welcome to Rauland!
