Besseggen Fjellpark - Reviews

auto-translated: the river is very loud for sleeping in the tent, but otherwise beautifully situated and perfectly adequate

auto-translated: Spent two days at this campsite. Ideal for the Besseggen hike. Several other hikes are available from the campsite.
Sanitary facilities are okay, showering with coins.
The man behind reception is short, not inviting to ask any questions about the area.
All in all, we had a great 2 days at the campsite, especially enjoying the area, which is why we came here

auto-translated: A beautiful campsite with a great view. Friendly welcome, free choice of pitches. Good starting point for hikes.

auto-translated: During the season very scarce and very poorly maintained sanitary facilities.
One star is already overrated. The operator obviously shies away from the maintenance of green areas and instead provides huge gravel areas as a pitch. The "barren" Hochfjell, on the other hand, is an oasis.
And nowhere have I experienced that the Frichwasserversorgung was so close to the Potti emptying!

auto-translated: We were in mid-June for one night (transit

auto-translated: The site is a great starting point for the Besseggen hike. Pitches are partly very sloping, so you have to look where you put. There is a small kitchen and a restaurant. The site manager speaks fluent German, but has a somewhat interesting manner. The sanitary facilities are also good, but four minutes of hot water in the shower cost 15NOK, I find too expensive!

auto-translated: Large campsite, great location, close to Bessegen. There is a kitchen with dining area and a small room for relaxing - unfortunately not very clean and cozy.

auto-translated: Clean place in breathtaking nature. Already a bit older but very clean sanitary facilities. WIFI available but can only be used near the reception.

auto-translated: A nice campsite in beautiful surroundings.

auto-translated: The situation itself does not justify the price in this case. The sanitary facilities are a cheek, it stinks, it is not clean, sometimes in the showers also moldy. As a starting point for hikes very good, for camping the opposite. The meadow area is partly very steep. WLAN with very bad data rate, hardly usable. Altogether not recommendable. In any case, we won't come back.

auto-translated: The place is big and clean. The sanitary facilities are ok and usable. The price is higher compared to other campsites. (260 NOKWoMo). Showers cost 15 NOK extra for 4 minutes. WLAN is available but not usable on our WoMo site (upper gravel site).

auto-translated: Very nice place with very fast access to the Fjell. Absolutely friendly and helpful staff. Sanitary facilities clean.

Price: ~240kr per night
Wifi: Yes, free
Shower: Paid (15kr / 4min)
Kitchen: Yes
Water cooker: No

Outdated facilities. Kitchen and bathroom were not very clean (okayish). Close to Besseggen ridge hike trail.

There were lots of people staying here, especially Friday night, but the campground is big and it wasn’t a problem to find a spot for our tent that gave us some privacy. Of course being so close to Bessegen it will be busy in the summer.

The facilities were clean and seemed big enough for everyone. Owner was friendly.

auto-translated: The location on the river with a waterfall is beautiful. At the entrance is the reception with restaurant. The staff was ok. Motorhomes stand on the gravel ground and the tents on the meadow by the river. Sanitary facilities were supposedly renovated, but the toilets are limited in number and narrow. 15 crowns for 4 minutes showers.
Conclusion: nature top, space rather ok

Great location: river, waterfall, near Bessegen hike.
Unfriendly staff
unstable wi-fi near reception, wasn't able to use it
tent pitches were steep near the river
old and very dirty kitchen, there was a leak on one of the sinks
sanitary facilities old, stink, dirty, shower with coin machine
laundry is avaliable (the receptionist wasn't helpful at all, after bessegen hike we got wet, payed for laundry, he didn't explain anything, we couldn't find washing powder, and I had to run between buildings on a heavy rain to find out that I need to buy it on a reception)

auto-translated: Winter camping in beautiful surroundings. Washing up unfortunately at the washbasin, since in the winter the common kitchen stay room does not have opened. Shower coins for about 4 minutes. Very friendly owner. Snowshoe tour and back country ski possible from the campsite. Note the winter closure of 51 coming from the south!

auto-translated: We were here for two nights to hike a day off. The complex is very spacious. Huts generously distributed. The places for WoWa and Womo are gravelled. So it's almost impossible to put an awning, storm bands or a stakout for the dogs. Sanitary clean, but outdated. 4 min shower 10 kr where 1 minute alone is already gone before warm water comes. Doors very low in the area of the toilets. Dish washing is not very pleasant outside, at minus degrees. No washing machine and dryer available. Scenic but a dream.

auto-translated: Ideal starting point for the Besseggen ridge walk. We had 2 wonderful days on this great place. Motorhomes are on the top right on a sloping meadow or the gravel place. Camping is possible directly on the river. Underfloor heating in the sanitary area!

Not my favorite. Crowded and not very personal campsite. Also the toilets are outdated and narrow - and there’s not that many of them considering the size of the campsite. But of course very well situated if you want to do the Besseggen bike.

auto-translated: Good campsite to hike in the Jotunheimen National Park. For caravans and mobile only gravel places.
Good restaurant at the campsite!

auto-translated: Staff rather unfriendly. Camp is located on the river. For tents beautiful meadow. For campers and motorhomes gravel parking. Sanitary facilities very outdated. You wash outside. 220 NOK for too much. There is a small shop where you can buy equipment and food.

auto-translated: The cabins are very cosy, but are a bit out of the way. Campgrounds are directly on the river with a beautiful view.

auto-translated: Great facility in fantastic surroundings of the Jotunheimen National Park. From there e.g. 2 km to gjendesheim from where the boats leave for the Besseggen hiking trail. We had a hut with bath and kitchen, which had for the price (actually 1000 crowns, we only paid 700) really everything what the heart desires (fireplace, shower, oven and and and and). Very clean and homely, we immediately felt super comfortable and would have liked to stay even longer. Price is absolutely justified, staff was very friendly and helpful. You can also eat very tasty in the reception building restaurant. We would come back immediately, unreservedly recommended.

auto-translated: We stayed with a tent and large car at this campsite for 2 nights on the pitch. Nice, clean sanitary facilities and nice reception. Close to Besseggen and therefore could start the hike early. Very nice surroundings. There were free sheep in the place, but not disturbed, rather a great Flair thereby.

auto-translated: The sanitary facilities were not cleaned in the 2 days that we were on the spot. Beautiful landscape.Good starting point for hikes. WiFi available
large kitchen with lounge.

auto-translated: Actually we wanted to stay overnight on 24.05.17 on this place with our mobile, after the Internet appearance was so promising. Unfortunately no staff was available and hardly any people could be seen. In addition, an icy cold wind whistled at this height. So we drove on.

auto-translated: very big place, old and simple kitchen available, sanitary ok, tasty waffles

auto-translated: Beautiful place surrounded by nature. Kitchen and sanitary facilities were clean but outdated. Nice personel.
