Birdwatching with Dovre og Lesja Aktiv
BIRD WATCHING IN LESJA - BY CAR When & where? May 6 - May 31 (Sunday, Tuesday&Thursday) 08:00 Sentralplassen 3A, Dombås (outside Frich’s Kafetaria) How early this safari can be arranged depends on snow melting/temperature. If spring comes early, this trip can be arranged in april too.
What to expect
Lesjaleira in Lesja is a valuable area for animal and bird life. The wetland area is particularly
important for migrating waders and ducks, and approximately 170 bird species have been
observed in the area, of which 70 are nesting.
Lesjaleira has a special history, and along the way the guide will explain what makes this
area so special, as well as what kind of species you can expect. The trip takes about 2.5
hours. The safari is arranged as a bus trip, and is therefore suitable for anyone with an
interest in birds. The bus stops when observing interesting birds, and we don't walk far from the bus. The guide brings a telescope for spotting animals and birds.
What to bring Bring warm clothes and water-repellent shoes, and binoculars if you have them!
NEW - STAY AT A BIRD WATCHING TOWER! From this year, it is also possible to spend the night in a birdwatching tower! You wake up
several meters above the ground to birds chirping around you, and maybe you even see a
moose or other animals?
