Maihaugen offers activities and experiences for the whole family. Enjoy the idyllic surroundings and experience life like in the old days. The museum has more than 200 historic houses from as far back as the 13th Century to homes of the different decades of the 1900s, including Queen Sonja’s childhood home. Grazing animals in the open-air museum. All year you can look into historical houses and visit great exhibitions, the museum shop and café. Don't miss our popular Christmas Market in November/December.
Does as it says on the tin. In winter with the snow it was quite beautiful to walk around. Lots of different wooden cabins and building that represented classic style from days gone by. Set in beautiful surroundings with lakes and woodland. Nice to get out in fresh air after doing the Olympic museum. Both are situated in the same place.

Experience the atmosphere of beautiful Aulestad! The Nobel laureate Bjornstjerne Bjornson lived here with his family from 1875. The home is one of the best preserved artist homes in Norway. The summer of 2020 visitors can unfortunately not enter the artist home due to covid-19. You are still welcome to visit the museum. Aulestad offers a great new Bjørnson-exhitition and you will meet a guide in the garden. There is a fun exploring trail for kids there as well. Approximately 18 km from Lillehammer, follow signs from the main road E6 north of Lillehammer. From E6 take highway 225 towards Gausdal, and follow the road past the center of Follebu to Aulestad. Free parking lots by the road. There are bus connection from the train station in Lillehammer.

Welcome to the home of one of Norway’s great female writers. NB! In 2020 the home is not open for visitors due to covid-19. Still you can visit the museum. Nobel laureate Sigrid Undset (1882–1949) lived at Bjerkebæk with her three children. Here she wrote the medieval novels for which she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1928. Enjoy a walk in the garden, where there is also a fun exploring trail for kids. Nice exhibition on Undset’s life through her many journeys. The modern visitor centre has a nice museum shop and view to the home and a beautiful garden.

A priest from the local communiy managed to get down into Helvete (Hell) and when he reached the edge on his way up again, with old, moldy bones in his hands, he said he can now claim being the only priest in the country who have been to Hell and gotten out in one piece!! Northern Europes largest potholes, one of the wildest thing you se and experience in the Norwegian nature!!
First: You need to coordinate hands and feet to walk the route through the potholes of "Helvete". The route is far from extreme, but involves some light climbing where you need to hold on tight to railing. The spectacle is what a river underneath the ice of the previous ice age has dug through the rock. This is a rather deep "canyon" with a series of potholes. The slick, curved walls are impressive to watch and provide a reverbing acoustic experience. It is a very nice example of the wonders of nature. The name is perhaps misplaced. There are no flames or evil here, but one can easily imagine the powers at work to form the potholes. We loved the experience.
