The nearest lake is just 80 meters away. Remember to bring your fishing rods, bait and card with you. Buy fishing card here.

Take a stroll around the lake or walk along the famous Rallarvegen. We guaranty some stunning views. The area lies in the western part of Skarvheimen, where the western and eastern weather systems meet. This provides the area with snow from both weather systems, and usually keeps snow conditions excellent throughout the winter. Slightly east of Reinunga lies the Storeskavlen glacier, which keeps the snow cool and stable.

Nice cross country skiing on Reinunga and Seltuft lakes.

For groomed tracks you will need to catch the train to Finse. Winter waymarking is done for the principal skiing season at Easter, although some routes are waymarked as early as February. 

Although Myrdal has less northern lights than northern Norway, Months from September to March often prove to give us one or two nights of possible Aurora spotting. For a better chance of spotting them come during the new moon.
