MUSK OX SAFARI AND HIKING
Oppdal
Millions of years ago, the Musk Ox grazed side by side with the mammoth in Norwegian mountains. We take you hiking and on a Musk Ox safari to the only place in Norway where you can experience this animal in its proper element. We will go on a gondola tour, stop at a famous viewpoint and eat well on this tour.
We take you to the border of Dovrefjell Nationalpark and Trollheimen. We will visit the iconic Viewpoint Snøhetta, stay at an authentic mountain hotel and eat local food. Today you can still experience the wildlife live on Dovrefjell.
Wine tasting and massage may be a part of this experience the same goes for a gondola ride.
NOTE: THE MUSK OX SAFARI can be combined with THE YOGA AND CULTURE TRAIN RIDE as there is just a short train ride between Oppdal and the Olympic Village of Lillehammer.
NOTE: THE MUSK OX SAFARI can also be a lovely winter excursion/hike. 3 nights experience.
