Storhøliseter

Storhøliseter is a large mountain farm complex in northern Langsua with long traditions of welcoming hikers. Previously, it was a staffed cabin, but in 2002, operations ceased, and DNT Oslo and Omegn entered into an agreement to rent a cabin as a self-service cabin. With its good accessibility and varied, easy terrain, Storhøliseter is well suited for families with children. Long history: The oldest cabin, Casparistua, is almost 300 years old. It is named after our famous high mountain poet Theodor Caspari (1853-1948), who lived at Storhøliseter for many years. Much of Caspari’s poetry was inspired by trips in this very area. Great hiking area. The cabins are located below Storhøpiggen, which is a great hiking destination from the cabin. The round trip around Svarttjønnholet is also an experience, especially for horse enthusiasts, as a large herd of stallions grazes here every summer. Early trail marking in winter The trail from Finnbøle is marked for the winter holidays and forms the starting point for a great early-marked trail network in the Langsua area.
