Pick up / meeting point

Outdoor Norway is conveniently located by the lakeside of Vangsvatnet Lake, in Voss centrum. BY BUS OR TRAIN? It's an easy and pleasant 300m walk from the train/bus station. DRIVING? If you're planning to drive, we offer the freedom of free parking at our base. You can leave your car here, knowing it's safe, while you immerse yourself in the activities with us. Note: It does fit Campervans and trailers, but it's not allowed overnight in the parking area. STAYING AT THE MAIN HOTELS IN VOSS? Below, we have highlighted our shop and the three leading hotels in Voss Centre. A pleasant walk by the lake (if it's not stormy weather). AMMENITIES AT OUR SHOP Outside our shop, there is a picnic table, and you're welcome to sit by the lake while enjoying your snack. Our shop has toilets and changing rooms. We do not have showers. We have shelves so you can leave your dry clothes while participating in water activities or bike rides. Leave valuables at your hotel or safeguard. We do not provide lockers for valuables. Although we locked our changing rooms, your belongings will be safer. We want to let you know that your passport, travel check, and money you don't need to bring to go rafting or biking. We accept all cards in case you want to purchase photos, T-shirts, hats, souvenirs, or go on a second adventure. We look forward to sharing a great adventure with you!
