Get up close to wolves and reindeer
E.K.T. Langedrag Nature Park has magnificent views of the lakes and mountains between Hallingdal and Numedal. Here you can encounter rare, wild animals such as wolves and lynx as well as elk and reindeer.
On the farm, visitors can interact with all the animals, join in on feeding rounds, help in the dairy or just pet one of the many furry inhabitants. At Langedrag there is a variety of activities for children – riding, fishing and tours by horse-and-carriage. In winter there is also dog sledging. The farm is open to visitors all year round.
A bit of history and culture
On the hillside at Kirkebygda, only ten minutes from the centre of Rødberg, you will find the Nore og Uvdal Bygdemuseum (open air museum). The site used to be a rectory, but is now a collection of seventeen historic buildings from the area. Visitors can step inside an old school, the original rectory food store, a barn and a grain house from the valley, among others.
Also on site is Uvdal Stave Church from 1168. The museum and the churches are open from June until the end of August. Throughout the summer there is a wide variety of activities, guided tours and concerts.

Uvdal Activityfarm is a western style centre and offers riding lessons as well as tours on horseback in the forest and horse and carriage rides.
Hiking and cycling
