Lomsdal-Visten National Park (Njaarken vaarjelimmiedajve) is a hidden gem with strikingly varied landscapes. Here, you’ll find fjords, lush valleys, forests, and high mountains — and plenty of great fishing lakes throughout. There are some trails along the edges of the park, but once you reach the highlands, you’ll need to navigate on your own.
Lomsdal-Visten National Park is a vast wilderness area stretching from low-lying coastline to mountain peaks over 1,200 metres high. And when we say wilderness, we really mean it. Like Børgefjell National Park, Lomsdal-Visten has hardly any facilities. While you’ll find a few marked trails near the park’s outer areas, longer hikes require solid navigation skills and a good dose of mountain know-how. Read More
