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 at the scheduled time before taking a minibus to the Åselidalen Valley. Prepare for a trekking adventure.

Upon arrival, we will observe the Børvasstindane Mountains from a distance. These peaks are older than Bodø's "Hidden Valley". We will walk through the Åselidalen Valley, shaped by glaciers millions of years ago. With our guide, we'll uncover the secrets of these mountains, each exceeding 1000 metres (3281 feet) in height.

Our trek will include lakes and winding paths. This day trip is suitable for all fitness levels, with multiple stops for enjoying views and ensuring a pleasurable experience.

Another highlight is a visit to Saltstraumen, the straits of the Norwegian Sea separating the Straumen and Straumøya islands.

After the tour, we will return to our original meeting point, completing our journey in approximately 7 hours.
