Location and attainability

By car.             

The valley "Østerdalen" is located between the old and worn mountains of South - East Norway.  Glomma river is running through this valley. Along the river there are the railway from Kongsvinger - Trondheim and Highway 30. The distance from Oslo to Kvennan Camping is about 370 km, roughly 4 to 5 hours driving. The roads are usually very quiet.

Public transport.

You can reach Kvennan Camping also by train. Both in Tynset and Tolga there is a railway station. From Oslo - Gardermoen airport the journey by train will last approximately 4 hours. There is also an excellent connexion by bus. Look for more information at the bottom of this page : useful links.

 
     
 

 

From this aerial picture you can get a good view of how the camping is situated next to the riverside. Near the water there are places for your tent or caravan, and there are some cabins too. On the other side of the road you can find the kiosk, and some more cabins. On both sides of the road there is a toilet building.

Of course you can make a small fire at the designated fireplaces next to your tent. When you have caught a fish, it's really nice to roast it on the fire. Just add a little salt and pepper, some butter over it, take a glass of wine with it - you will have a three star meal on the banks of the Glomma.
