What to do in Telemark

Join a boat trip on the canal, visit Bø Sommarland amusement park or plan a biking holiday.

Bø Sommarland

Many a face showed a sceptic smile when some local enthusiasts wanted to build an amusement park in the middle of Telemark. Today, 20 years later, no one's laughing anymore. The very successful Bø Sommarland has not only become Norway's largest aqua park, but also one of Europe's most beautiful.

Wakeboard at Norsjø

All speed addicts between 8 and 80 years agree that Norsjø Ferieland's noiseless knee board/wakeboard/water skis cable car is cool.

Activity programme on the roof of Telemark

Gaustablikk Høyfjellshotell arranges an exciting activity programme from 4. July to 7. August. On this programme there is rappelling, Livingstone tour, bungee jumping from Vemork bridge (84m!) and conquering Gaustatoppen.
