Hammock – a hovering overnight stay beneath Hornelen

Hornelen Via Ferrata takes you on an overnigh trip you will always remember! The tour starts walking along the waterfront to the introduction wall, where we strap on the via ferrata equipment.

Here you wil get a full introduction to Via Ferrata climbing and test gravity. The tour continues up the steep stairs which eventually end by our shelter for the night. Here we light the fire, and the guide prepares dinner with a stunning view. When the night falls, you hang up the hammocks in the shelter and dream sweet dreams.

The next day, enjoy breakfast with sunrise before hiking back to basecamp.

How difficult is this tour?

The climbing section itself is graded B on the Via Ferrata scale, which is manageable for most active people. The hiking part of this tour is on a classic Norwegian trail, with uneven rocky sections, loose stones, the occasional wet or muddy patches and steep wooden stairs going up/down. You should feel confident in hiking on uneven terrain, including heights. 

On tour

  • Included: Via Ferrata set, helmet, harnass, dinner, breakfast, hammock and guiding.
  • Bring yourself: Shoes, gloves (gloves can be bought at our store), fitted clothing, backpack, sleeping bag (can be rented upon request) and toiletries.

Why sit tight when you can hang loose?

This is the perfect tour for sporty people (including families!) who want an overnight trip with that little extra, where the focus is on experiencing nature and having fun. Our skilled guides take care of the group’s safety and create a good atmosphere so that you can enjoy the activity and the surroundings.

The tour starts from basecamp with around 60 minutes of hiking, before climbing for 20 minutes and continuing up the stairs for another 30 minutes. Once there, we set up camp for the evening and cook together. In the morning, we pack up after breakfast, before returning via the return trail to Basecamp.
