Summer activities

The summer has hiking, climbing, surfing, wind-surfing, canoeing, cycling and a host of other activities.
For the more adventurous, there is base jumping at Kjerag near Lysebotn in Lysefjord. We hope there will also be downhill biking at some of the ski resorts next summer.
We have a list of "vertigo view" hikes: Pulpit Rock, Kjerag and Skomakernibbå - with more to be added - so if the picture on the right looks interesting then get your boots on.

Winter activities

The winter brings out the skiers - cross-country, alpine, telemark, snow-boarding, or kite-skiing - plus ice skating at arenas or on lakes of course (and the surfers never seem to know when to give up!)
