Helvete

A priest from the local communiy managed to get down into Helvete (Hell) and when he reached the edge on his way up again, with old, moldy bones in his hands, he said he can now claim being the only priest in the country who have been to Hell and gotten out in one piece!! Northern Europes largest potholes, one of the wildest thing you se and experience in the Norwegian nature!!

First: You need to coordinate hands and feet to walk the route through the potholes of "Helvete". The route is far from extreme, but involves some light climbing where you need to hold on tight to railing. The spectacle is what a river underneath the ice of the previous ice age has dug through the rock. This is a rather deep "canyon" with a series of potholes. The slick, curved walls are impressive to watch and provide a reverbing acoustic experience. It is a very nice example of the wonders of nature. The name is perhaps misplaced. There are no flames or evil here, but one can easily imagine the powers at work to form the potholes. We loved the experience.

Glittersja Fjellgard

Reviewed By c3u - Oslo, Norway

We come back to this place every year—sometimes more than once—just to take in the atmosphere. The couple running the place, Hege and Helge (yup!) are amazing and charismatic, the view is spectacular and the animals are a treat. The kids love it as much as we do. Great waffles and cinnamon rolls for sale on site, the waffles made with eggs from the different farm animals. Thank you, Hege and Helge, for your effort, insight and inspiration!
