ImageHiking
Korgen Camping is an ideal starting point for woodland walks or mountain hiking. Guided mountain- and glacier excursions are available. You can also roam on your own, on well marked trails. You can find spectacular mountain views, caves, boreal rain forest and waterfalls. If fishing is your passion, the fjords, rivers and many lakes offer countless possibilities. The area also offers excellent opportunities for hunters, in the season.

Volunteers of the local Tourist Association (Turistforeningen) organize various hikes throughout the year, and have several cabins available for hikers.
