Tobogganing

1. The toboggan run at Loen

Nordfjord, Fjord Norway

Do you want to experience Norway's longest toboggan run? Then the Hoven mountain in Fjord Norway is the place for you! The seven-kilometre-long toboggan run will give you plenty of fun, and a fantastic view of the fjord and mountain area is also included!

Hoven is a very family friendly place to go tobogganing as it has both a light sled run suitable for the younger ones and a more fast-paced hill for older children and adults.

You can rent everything you need for a fun day at Loen Active in the mountain shop.
