Historic, small, log hotel from 1898 in Jotunheimen along Norwegian Scenic Route Valdresflye. 

The small historic Hindsæter Hotel is situated along the scenic road over Valdresflya at 950 metres above sea level with a stunning view of Sjodalen Valley and Jotunheimen National Park, just 15 kilometers from Besseggen and Gjende.

Built in 1898, Hindsæter is a relaxing getaway with exceptional opportunities at the doorstep where you enjoy excellent dinners in historical dining rooms and fresh mountain air on hiking trips in the summer and skiing trips in the winter .

Directions

Summer/autumn: Take E16 from Oslo (direction Fagernes) for the shortest way by car and continue over Valdresflya. The journey takes about 4 h and is a fantastic experience by itself.

Winter: From about mid December to the beginning of April the mountain road over Valdresflya is closed. During this period you will find your way to us along E6 towards Trondheim, then from Sjoa take the road 257 direction Randsverk before you turn south towards Hindsæter.

Trains and express busses run to Otta, 60 km from Hindsæter. From there you can take a taxi, a local bus (July & August) or we can pick you up by the hotel bus (only winter season between 1st of February and Easter).

The closest airport is Oslo Gardermoen.
