Åselidalen Valley Day Trip

If the rugged mountains of Bodø spark your curiosity, this hiking route through the Åselidalen Valley is perfect for you. Enjoy Norwegian nature at its best.

Description

We'll meet at the Bodø Tourist Information Point before taking a minibus to the Åselidalen Valley. As we arrive, we'll observe the Børvasstindane Mountains from afar. These peaks predate Bodø's "Hidden Valley". We'll walk through the Åselidalen Valley, carved by glaciers millions of years ago. With the help of our guide, we'll uncover the secrets of these mountains, all higher than 1000 metres (3281 feet).

We'll trek through lakes and winding paths, ensuring that our day trip is accessible for all fitness levels with frequent stops to enjoy the views. Another highlight is the visit to Saltstraumen, the Norwegian Sea straits separating the Straumen and Straumøya islands.

After our tour, we'll return to our original meeting point, concluding our journey 7 hours later.
