The Ustedalsfjorden Tour
Perfect for families!
Starting at Geilojordet this popular cultural and scenic trail twists and winds around Ustedalsfjorden. A tour perfect for the whole family. The road runs along Ustedalsfjorden the first 2 km until it reaches Geilo Beach, a sandy beach where you can have a nice swim. The road then passes the Fekjo burial mounds from 900 AD and Fekjo Culture Monument Park. Notice the wind and colour houses created by the artists Gunnveig Nerol and Terje Isungset. Visitors can walk among the 7 houses and listen to the music of the wind by playing the sound tree in each house. Then the tour takes you across Tuftebrui (a unique
old bridge construction, made entirely without the use of rivets) and towards Geilo on the south side of Ustedalsfjorden. Along the way there are several lay-bys where you can barbeque and fish. The last lap crosses the golf course in Vestlia, towards Solli and back to central Geilo.
Distance: 10 km, no cars
Surface: Gravel. Suitable for passenger trailers and short walks.
