1. GÅLÅ HØGFJELLSHOTELL OG
HYTTER:
Dine on Norwegian
cuisine crafted with fresh local
ingredients, such as trout and venison.
2. GÅLÅGYNTEN:
Wintertime in Gålå calls for a
toboggan run.
3. SKIING:
Gålå is a little over an hour north of
Lillehammer — one-time host of the Winter
Olympics — so it’s not surprising that there’s
prime schussing here. There are 15 slopes and eight ski lifts.
4. PEER GYNTVEGEN:
Cycle past green hills and grazing cows on this scenic route (named after a folkloric
character) that runs through Gålå.
5. CANOEING:
Take a guided canoe excursion across four mountain lakes in and around Gålå.
6. ANGRY BIRDS ACTIVITY PARK:
Let loose at this spot in Vuokatti. On-site activities include kids’ adventure
courses, seven driving ranges, and a nine-hole minigolf course.
7. SLEDDING:
From Vuokatti, set out through snowy forests and over frozen lakes, towed by a pack of
huskies in search of the Northern Lights.
8. RIPA’S KUPPILA:
Sip a steaming mug of hot chocolate high on a wooded hilltop at this restaurant in
Vuokatti.
9. HIKING:
Choose from a variety of marked paths, many affording views of the beautiful lakes and hills
surrounding Vuokatti.
10. RIDE A HORSE:
Southeast of Vuokatti, hook up with Kainuun Vaellustalli for a one-, two-, or three-hour
trail ride on a good-natured Icelandic horse.
hy Go?
For the chance to trade the hustle and bustle of everyday life for fresh mountain air and invigorating activities.
Visit when the ground is covered in snow to ski, snowshoe, or toboggan. And when the sun yields warmer temperatures,
take to the hills for hiking, cycling, and picnicking. And after fun-packed days, a hearty dinner makes for the perfect
nightcap. Enjoy locally caught trout in Gålå, Norway, or enjoy dishes smoked on site in Vuokatti, Finland.
Scandinavia and Finland
Lillehammer:
Visit the Maihaugen.
Built as a quaint village portraying life
in the Gudbrandsdalen Valley, the
open-air folk museum encompasses
approximately 200 structures, includ-
ing a timber-built farm, stave church,
and traditional homes. (1:20 from
Gålå)
“[Gålå has] the best local shop I’ve ever seen that sells everything
you need to ski, hunt, or do other outdoor activities.”
