Our plan for today was a 74 km, hour and a half drive to the National Park village of Lom, located at the foot of the mighty mountain Lomseggen. We were looking forward to admiring Lom’s main attraction, the lovely stave church, as well as indulging in a traditional Norwegian Schillingbollen bun and a hot chocolate at the Bakeriet i Lom.

The reason for this choice of site was to see the nearby maelstrom in action. The site has hard standing and grass pitches and the facilities are excellent.
