The best area to stay in Veitastrond is directly within the village centre, as it offers the most convenient access to local amenities and the region's natural beauty.


Veitastrond is a small, remote village situated at the end of Veitastrondsvatnet lake, surrounded by stunning mountains and glaciers. The village itself is quite compact, with a few guesthouses and holiday homes scattered near the lake and the local church. Staying here means you're right by the water and have immediate access to the hiking trails that branch off into the surrounding Jotunheimen National Park.


For couples seeking a quiet retreat, staying in one of the lakeside cabins or guesthouses provides a serene experience. You'll be able to enjoy peaceful mornings overlooking the lake, direct access to boating or fishing, and evenings under clear skies, superb for stargazing. The lack of light pollution here is a real highlight.


Families will also find the village centre appealing due to the ease of access to outdoor activities. Children can enjoy playing by the lake, and many of the nearby hiking trails are suitable for various fitness levels, allowing everyone to explore the natural surroundings together.

The best time to go to Veitastrond is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is mildest and the days are long.


During this period, the snow has largely melted, making hiking trails accessible and boat tours on the fjord more pleasant. The average daytime temperatures are comfortable for outdoor activities, typically ranging from 15°C to 20°C. You'll also experience the "midnight sun" phenomenon, where daylight extends late into the evening, allowing for more time to explore.


Couples looking for an active holiday will find this period ideal for kayaking on Veitastrondsvatnet lake or taking a guided glacier hike on the nearby Jostedalsbreen glacier, which is Europe's largest mainland glacier. The longer daylight hours mean you can enjoy extended adventures and scenic drives through the stunning landscape without feeling rushed.


For travellers interested in photography or simply soaking in the natural beauty, the summer offers lush green landscapes, blooming wildflowers, and the dramatic backdrop of the mountains and glaciers under soft, extended daylight.
