Visitors to Sjodalen can experience a lot more than just traditional
mountain hikes. Rafting is a popular activity that attracts thousands
of participants each year.
Gorge touring is also popular, and Sjodalen has many nice rivers that
are well suited to this purpose. Kayaking on Sjoa is something else
that has become common during recent years, and which everyone can give
a try. Or you might want to combine some paddling on Lake Gjende with
a hike to the top.
You can read more about these activities on the Upptur
website.
There are many rivers in the area, and lots of summer visitors come
here to fish. Trout is the main catch here.There are many old pasture
roads in Sjodalen, which are well suited to mountain biking. Bicycle

on horseback.

skiing, as there are many kilometres of groomed trails. And a paradise
for mountain peak trekking on ski! Other activities include icecanyoning,
