History
At Reinheimen Lodge, the story sits in the walls and lives on in the mountains around you-
​
​
The historic mountain farm on which Reinheimen Lodge is located was once two farms. At the upper mill, Søre Heggebotn, you will find today old houses from the 1880s with lots of exciting history in the timber walls. An old log house from the farm has been moved to Maihaugen in Lillehammer.
​
It is said that the farm was once owned by an old gold digger who found gold in the mountains of Breheimen. He was allegedly killed on his way over to Sweden when he was on his way to sell the gold.
​
The farmhouse that today houses Reinheimen Lodge has previously been home to Norway's perhaps most active postman: Twice a week he walked over the mountain and down into the world heritage fjord Geiranger. The mail is coming!
​
Today we have found new gold on the sites of the two old farms, and we look forward to showing you everything Breheimen Lodge and the mountains and the fjord kingdom around has to offer!
Facilities
Reinheimen Lodge offers exciting accommodation in four double rooms in the lodge and in two detached dome tents.
At Reinheimen Lodge you can rent a wood-fired hot tub and rowing boat for trout fishing and swimming. We work closely with mountain and cycling guides, and sell unique large game hunting for wild reindeer and deer with or without a guide.
​
During the winter months and weekdays in spring and autumn, Reinheimen Lodge can be rented in its entirety for private teams, family reunions and company trips - with or without a chef.
Our goal is to give you a good experience and a good memory if you are in transit, want a base for day trips or want to take advantage of what nature in the area has to offer.
