King's Road
The road that connected east and west, the King's Road over the Filefjell Mountains, was completed in 1793 as the first road where people could travel by horse and cart between east and west in Norway, and between the country's two largest cities, Christiania (Oslo) and Bergen. The road replaced the old bridle and pack horse railway from the Middle Ages and the post road from the 17th century.
National Wild Salmon Center
The National Wild Salmon Center works to spread knowledge and create engagement for salmon. It is our common heritage and our common responsibility.
The Wild Salmon Center in Lærdal is undergoing modernization and reconstruction. New exhibitions will be in place in the summer of 2023.
Hiking in Lærdal
Looking for the best hiking trails in Lærdal? Try some trails with historical sights or take a walk through the natural areas around Lærdal, which are perfect for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts of all skill levels.
Stegastein viewpoint
A view that will take your breath away.
Stegastein viewpoint is part of the National Tourist Route that runs from Lærdal to Aurland and is probably the most photographed viewpoint in the area. That is why we recommend that if you want to get the best picture without many tourists, visit in the late evening hours in the summer.
Aurlandsfjellet
Did you know that our hotel is a great starting point for your trip to Aurlandsfjellet? The infamous road between Lærdal and Aurland is 48 km long and usually opens in early June and closes in mid-October. The road is also called the snowroad as snow can be seen along the road all summer. Prepare your cameras and phones as you will want to photograph beautiful waterfalls, a sleeping bear in a cave or a beautiful view of the Aurlandsfjord from the Stegastein viewpoint.
Auga Bathhouse
If you fancy a relaxing sauna and a dip in the fjord after a long day of hiking in the mountains or driving across the country, Auga is the place for you! It is a wood-fired barrel sauna with space for up to 8 people. Auga means "eye" in the local dialect, the reason for this is the unique perspective the sauna provides.
Auga is located just a 10-minute walk from the hotel at the end of Grandane road between Lærdal holiday and leisure park and motor park.
Flåm Railway
