Nestled in Norway’s highest mountain range, the enchanting village of Heggenes is perched between two picturesque national parks. At an altitude of 500 meters, you will find the exclusive boutique hotel Herangtunet. This stunning estate seems as if it was taken from the pages of a fairytale. Set amid an expansive forest and surrounded by water, Herangtunet truly embodies its name, translating to “farm garden.” The only other nearby buildings are ancient, uninhabited structures that were preserved as a testament to the cultural heritage of the Valdres province.

This small timber-clad hotel is constructed in the traditional building style of the region. Guests can choose from five stylish rooms featuring themed designs of Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Holland, and France. There are also four larger themed suites reminiscent of New York, Aspen, London, and Rome. There is also a fully furnished apartment for guests requiring a bit more space. The cozy restaurant provides an inviting atmosphere with its wood-burning stove and regional dishes.

Situated between the Jotunheimen and Heggefjord national parks, Herangtunet provides a year-round destination in Norway’s sunniest region. In the summer months, Herangtunet is close to a major lake, one of the greatest rafting destinations, hiking trails, riding trails, climbing formations, and great fishing spots. In the winter, it becomes a premier location due to its proximity to the Beitostølen ski resort.

Whether you are looking to escape city life, explore the wilderness, or looking for the perfect gathering place, Herangtunet offers intimate and luxurious accommodations to meet all your needs.
