Charming Cabin Retreat in Stavtjørn – Your Gateway to Norway’s Natural Wonders

Welcome to our cozy traditional cabin at Stavtjørn, where rustic charm meets modern comfort amidst breathtaking natural beauty. Built in 1978, this 44m2 cabin includes modern amenities such as electricity, water, and a heated bathroom—this cabin offers an inviting escape for families, couples, and friends alike. With three bedrooms, it’s the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the peaceful Norwegian wilderness.

Year-Round Adventure Awaits

Located just an hour and a half from Stavanger, our cabin provides the ideal base for exploring Stavtjørn and the stunning Orsdalen region. In winter, Stavtjørn transforms into a snowy paradise. Glide across frozen lakes for a serene ice-skating experience or hit the cross-country ski trails and alpine slopes, just steps from the cabin. After a day of winter fun, warm up by the fireplace or in the renovated bathroom with underfloor heating.

When the snow melts, nature lovers can enjoy hiking along the miles of marked trails and fishing in the nearby lakes. Summer and autumn bring vibrant colors and the opportunity for berry picking, with fields of wild raspberries and blueberries waiting to be gathered. Don’t miss the panoramic views from Skarkaknuten, where, on clear days, you can spot the North Sea on the horizon.

Explore the Hidden Gems of Orsdalen

Beyond Stavtjørn, discover the enchanting landscapes of Orsdalen, where history and nature intertwine. Start your adventure at Vassbe by the harbor, a great spot for fishing, especially for salmon. Continue to Hovland, home to a historic geo-park where 100 men once worked in the mountains. Wander through ancient ruins and immerse yourself in Norway’s past.

For hikers, head to Bjordal, where the road ends and adventure begins. Follow the “red-marked path” to Brattebe or Kvitlen, and stay overnight in a charming DNT cabin. Fishing enthusiasts will love catching trout in the mountain lakes or salmon in Bjerkreimselva, one of Norway’s top rivers for salmon fishing.

Scenic Day Trips

For a peaceful day out, take a scenic drive to Fossbrekka and explore Espeland. A gentle walk along the “forest road” leads you to a beautiful waterfall. Along Road 503, visit Gloppedalsura and Byrkjedalstunet, where you can enjoy traditional food, pick up souvenirs, and let the kids make their own candles. At Byrkjedalstunet, you’ll also find goats, a cozy bakery, and a selection of traditional Norwegian crafts, making it a perfect stop for the whole family.

For those seeking more adventure, continue along Road 45 to Dygardsstolen, where a 5-6 hour hike will take you to the famous Kjeragbolten, offering an unforgettable experience.

Whether you’re enjoying winter ice-skating, summer berry picking, or exploring the rich history and rugged landscapes of Orsdalen, our cabin at Stavtjørn is your ideal base for year-round adventure. Book your stay today and experience the magic of Norway’s great outdoors!
