We can take you to this special place where you will see the fjord landscape of Hardanger and Folgefonna glacier. We will take a tour through the old hydropower tunnels and get to know the area better.

If you would like to bring your pet, please be aware that it will not be able to sleep in the tent.

Please be aware that we need to limit the consumption of alcohol due to safety reasons. We therefore ask you to not bring any hard liquor on the tour. If in doubt, your guide will have the last word and might not allow you to access the portaledge tent or get close to the cliff side and can decide to walk you back down to the parking and therewith end the tour. We hold the responsibility for your personal safety and therefore ask for your understanding, especially since Norwegian laws are very strict on alcohol consumption.

You access your tent for the night via a rope ladder. You are secured and assisted by a professional guide at all times. Nevertheless, this activity requires a good level of fitness, and you should not be afraid of heights. If you decide that you would rather spend your night more grounded, we have regular tents available.

You need to bring warm clothing that suits the time of year and the weather of the day.

You need to bring your own personal medications.

Bring a bottle of water, at least 1 liter.

For safety reasons there is a weight limit of 100kg per person (total 200kg) for sleeping in the portaledges. If you exceed this limit but would still like to book this tour, we can provide you with an alternative on the ground – with the same stunning views.

What To Expect

During this activity, you will spend the night in a portaledge tent suspended on a cliff overlooking the fjord. These tents were developed by professional climbers for multi-day climbs. Since you are accompanied by an experienced guide, you don’t need prior climbing experience – just a good sense of adventure! The hike to your accommodation is a beautiful little path that takes you around 1h and opens up to spectacular views. Once you reach camp, your guide will show you around the area. You then have time to enjoy this beautiful piece of Norwegian nature and take a wander around. Dinner is prepared at camp and served by the bonfire – if the weather allows for it. You spend the evening with stories and amazing views before you climb down into your tent hanging on the cliff side 400m above Sørfjorden overlooking Folgefonna Glacier. After a beautiful evening and night out in the wilderness, you will be served breakfast before you pack up and hike back to civilization.
