Hiking in a green mountain landscape in Trysil
Hiking in Trysil

Fantastic hikes, summit tours and mountain nature experiences – from peaceful forest trails to viewpoints you will not soon forget

When the snow melts and the mountains turn green, Trysil reveals a different side of itself. Marked trails, family-friendly hikes, summit tours with wide views and low-threshold activities make it easy to enjoy nature actively. Trysil is just as suitable for a peaceful afternoon walk as it is for those who travel here to fill their days with mountains, movement and a true summer feeling.

Summer in the mountains

Accessible hikes, airy summits and active days in nature

With BNO Travel, it becomes easier to find accommodation, hiking-friendly areas and a stay that suits families, couples and travellers who want to spend the summer outdoors.

Why experience hiking in Trysil

An easily accessible mountain area with great variety, clear signage and nature experiences for many levels

Trysil is a year-round destination, but summer and autumn give the mountains a special calm and a different sense of freedom. You can choose between short forest walks, family-friendly trails, longer mountain hikes and summit tours with views of forests, rivers and wide-open heights. What makes hiking in Trysil so attractive is the combination of easy access and a genuine mountain feel – you quickly get out into nature without the experience feeling small.

An area that invites both activity and relaxation

Trysil is well suited for travellers who want nature close by without making the threshold too high. Many trails start close to accommodation or parking areas, and the clear signage makes it easy to get started. At the same time, there is enough variety for more experienced hikers to find routes with more elevation, distance and views.

This gives the destination a breadth that few summer destinations combine as well.

BNO Travel makes it easier to plan your mountain holiday

With BNO Travel, you get help finding accommodation, hiking tips and good starting points for your stay, so you can spend more time on the experience itself and less time on logistics. Some guests want to stay close to the trails, while others want to combine hiking with several activities or enjoy a quieter stay with views and good facilities.

We make it easier to put together a holiday that matches your pace, travel group and level.
