Some of the most amazing food I have had in Norway. Even better we learned about how the goats cheese gets made and the work the goes into it. Made you appreciate it that much more when you got to taste the food.

We hiked up here on a super rainy day but the cafe at the top was so rewarding! The pancakes and cheese were amazing, the staff was very friendly, and the tour of the goat farm and cheese making area was great! Would highly recommend!! & they take credit card btw.

Hope you like hikes, cheese, tea, coffee and pancakes! Such an amazing place the family opens their beautiful property and lets us hike then they run a cafe in half way up the mountain and serve home made cheese and food. This hike was amazing the scenery, walking a working farm, seeing the views and a nice inviting spot to rest! Highly recommend this hike.

Visiting this place was a truly unique and wonderful experience! A short and beautiful (but steep) hike up from the parking spot 1km below, through the trees, past waterfalls, goats, sheep and arriving at a heavenly cafe at the end! The goats cheese plate was phenomenal, with great explanations of all their cheeses, and then the highlight - brown cheese with pancakes. They even made gluten free ones for us and then took us on a tour of the farm. The most accommodating and lovely people and delicious coffee too. Absolute highlight of our honeymoon in Norway!!
