Hotels in Hardangervidda National Park, Norway
Hardangervidda National Park is Norway's largest mountain plateau, a high-altitude wilderness famous for its wild reindeer herds and the dramatic Vøringsfossen waterfall. The climate is alpine tundra: summers are cool (around 50°F/10°C) for hiking across the barren landscape and swimming in glacier-fed lakes, while winters drop to 20°F/-7°C for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing along marked trails. You'll find the best views of the plateau from the Hardangervidda Nature Centre, where you can also learn about the park's unique ecosystem before heading out on a summer hike or a winter ski trip.
