Skogtun Camping - Reviews

auto-translated: There are such longing views. Here you have them live, if you can find a nice spot. It can get crowded in the evening. The sanitary facilities are scarce but somehow it was always enough.

auto-translated: Beautiful pitches

auto-translated: Definitely for visiting Bergen, or if you need to get to or from the Ferry an ideal place. Very varied terrain with super views of the surrounding islands and the sea. and lots of nice extras on the site such as spots for a campfire/bbq and a great old-style house where you will enjoy sitting in the evening or when it rains. Oh, yes. also a covered place on top of the hill by the campsite to sit or and bbq. Furthermore also a swimming/fishing jetty.
Also some drawbacks. Far too few sanitary facilities. Especially when full. Hardly doable with a caravan. Super steep stretches and short turns. We were glad we only had tents with us this time. You can forget about power points on most of the campsite.
Still, the surroundings make up for everything.

auto-translated: Super nice site with lots of spaces to spread out. No huge parking area for everyone. Everyone goes to see where they want to stand. With 6.4m, we just about managed to get onto the lower, particularly nice pitches. Larger vehicles have to stay at the top. Only there is electricity. Wash houses and kitchen are new and clean. Very nice owners, we were invited to a midsummer barbecue. Downstairs there is a nice jetty for swimming and fishing. Bergen is easy to reach by bus.
After three nights we left with a heavy heart.

auto-translated: Incredible view!
Well-maintained campsite on several levels. Here you can find your own spot and are not forced into fixed plots. We were lucky enough to get a spot for our caravan on the upper level. From here you look out over Skogosen and have an impressive view in any weather.

Showers are clean and in good condition. There is a washing machine and dryer at fair prices. A great jetty for SUPing and fishing. Boats and SUPs are also available for rent.

Thank you for a great time!

auto-translated: beautiful place, friendly reception

auto-translated: One of the most beautiful campsites we have visited. A wonderful view of the fjord, lovingly designed, a mega nice lounge, there is something to discover at every corner and super nice owners. Showers are top, there are 2 each for men and women. We had a wonderful time here.

Camp site layout is quite complicated and placement is free…result it’s a mess when it’s crowded. We had one of the few flat spot for large tent then some Defender owner came back in the evening saying he was there the day before and didn’t want to go elsewhere although there was other spots suitable for his defender. Owner just said he didn’t want to intervene… he just want to take the fee and not work to regulate the camping. We decided to leave, we lost the afternoon.

A shame as the place is very nice, I think the best is to do it during low season

auto-translated: The campers stand quite close together at the beginning of the site. At the back, the entrance is closed to large campers and a terraced landscape begins. There are many individual pitches for vans and tents. A large meadow for tents with a sea view is adjacent. We liked this one very much. There is only one wash house for the very large site and depending on the position you have a long walk ahead of you. The mostly short waiting time for kitchen and showers is okay. We never had to wait for the toilets. We perceived the cleanliness differently. While the men's shower was clean, the women's shower was rather dirty. Overall, the operators are concerned about cleanliness, but the shower capacity for men is simply at its limit. Unfortunately, so was the shower water itself. While there was still lukewarm water for the men, only cold water came out of the shower head for the women.

auto-translated: Places by the sea are gorgeous but unfortunately only with a maximum of a van to reach. for us with a caravan just over 7m not possible. the pitches for caravans and large wobos are limited and not so nice for a long time. about the sanietären facilities I can not say anything because we went straight on.

auto-translated: Actually a lovingly designed place. Unfortunately, very busy. Rather what for after the season. Showers are me 2 pieces for each male and female honestly too little in the occupancy. Otherwise very nice. Stayed only one night.

auto-translated: Skogtun Camping is a wonderful, spacious, family-run facility with plenty of individual sites for tents and campers. The sanitary facilities are actually a bit of a step up from most campsites, but that hardly matters with the gorgeous site.
There are two great spots for swimming and fishing, grills and campfire areas are also available. In addition, there is a very lovingly furnished lounge. We (2 young adults with dog) would come back anytime!

auto-translated: What a beautiful location! Our view was beautiful. But we had rain and before that it had been raining for a while. So our spot was very soggy (little choice for big tent and 2 side tents) and it was getting worse. No electricity and quite a climb for water, toilets and showers. Showers free, 2 men, 2 women and a spacious disabled shower. This one was therefore very popular with all campers. Washing (50 cam) and drying (50 cam). Common room is very cozy and is mainly used by young people because of the WiFi. From here we went a day to Bergen. Drove to Straume and there got on the bus. Was good to do.

auto-translated: In nice weather super nice campsite. The reception is unfortunately only occupied from 9-11 and 18-20. There is a phone number on it. Sanitary facilities are okay but little for the whole place. Rowing boat could be rented without any problems. Great jetty, also for swimming.

Place especially for tents very nice.

auto-translated: Wonderful place, small narrow and winding paths. Great view.
The site is on a slope, direct access to the sea. Great for camping.
For long motorhomes

auto-translated: Plus: Clean, friendly hosts, very nice surroundings. Deduction: Sanitary facilitiesInfrastructure scarce for the number of places.

Family-run site in the best way, sanitary facilities better than home (but very limited number, could be crowded in summer). The site is located on a rather steep shore, with different pieces of grass on different level “terraces“ - hence you can find a very protected and very private spot (nice!) but need to climb a few meters of elevation to the toilets. View on the sea unbeatable, pricing reasonable for Norway.

auto-translated: Actually a very nice place. The winding structure is rather unusual, therefore partly very far to the sanitary building. The sanitary facilities are relatively new, good in themselves but definitely not enough. You have to get there very early in the morning or late in the evening if you don't want to wait. WLAN is only available in a specially prepared building, where there is a rustic lounge for all guests. The price for WoMo with 2 persons and electricity, shower included is okay for the proximity to Bergen. The place is built with a lot of love. We would come again.

auto-translated: a beautiful campsite. very big and in the middle of the mountain. It is situated directly by the sea with a large jetty and a barbecue area. Many loving details. But you have to be fit because the new sanctuaries are at the top. There is everything kitchen and washing machine. Bathroom even with underfloor heating. Showers free. Price for two persons and a WoMo 250 crowns.

We were welcomed by the owner who was very nice. The showers and toiles were in great condition and very clean. Also hot showers were free! We put up our tent by the seaside where we had a wonderful view of the coast. The atmosphere of the place was very homey.

auto-translated: Goods for high season in this campsite. The place is very involved and we have found a nice corner despite the full space. The sanitary facilities are clean and seem new, as well as the jetty on the water with opportunities for fishing and swimming. The price-performance ratio is right.

auto-translated: Perfect location right on the water, for caravans and mobile only a few places. The operators are super nice and helpful, sanitary facilities new and clean. Even a disabled toilet with shower is available ... unique!
If you can not relax here, it is your own fault. Gladly again.

auto-translated: The course is lovingly and creatively designed. The sanitary facilities were modern and clean and the sea view is unbeatable. For anglers there are also good opportunities and barbecue opportunities there are also several.

auto-translated: A great tent or campsite. The location is unbeatable! The view incredible. A campsite worthy of Norway.
I can recommend the place in any case!

auto-translated: We actually wanted to camp but all the dry places were completely overcrowded and so we took a hut - 3 beds with old mattresses + hotplate and nothing else. In the evening it was extremely crowded and camper vans stood up to the entrance area.
At the existing 2 free showers one had to queue for a long time.

Actually a nice place with bad huts but very crowded.

auto-translated: Fantastic campsite. Tent sites directly at the water and beautifully distributed so that one does not disturb each other. The owners are super friendly and the price-performance ratio is unbeatable (160 crowns per night for car with tent and 2 adults). The sanitary facilities are very clean and well maintained. Only the distance to the campsites at the lake is a bit annoying, especially at night. At least toilets closer to the lake would be great. Generally there are only 2 showers for the ladies and also 2 for the gentlemen, 1 toilet for ladies, one for gentlemen and again 2 for men and women together. I think if it is fuller here in summer, it could be too little. When we were there it was okay and you didn't have to wait long. The showers are also included in the overnight price and don't have to be paid separately. Top!

Great campsite with lovely view. Nice details, clean, free hot showers, laundry facilities, nice kitchen, warm guesthouse where you can sit and relax on rainy days when you only bring your tent.

auto-translated: Beautiful camping, we were on a super spot down towards the water. Beautiful fishing, you can swim, but anyway beautiful campsite with all kinds of places! Also very friendly owners, always wanting to help (eg with door of washing machine that turned out to be broken ;-)). Only downside: it is quite steep to go to the toilet or just get some water. But you can take that into account. Camping definitely recommended!

auto-translated: Simply perfect! Price for 2 with car and tent 160 crowns. Showers are free and you can fish directly from the shore (successfully) or take a boat. A fantastic view. The scales have to stay on top. That would destroy a lot of atmosphere here. You can swim here from the jetty and have a lot of distance to the other tents. It is so far by far the most beautiful campground for a long time.

auto-translated: Fantastic location with great campsites! Modern sanitary facilities, minigolf, playground, boat rental and an unbeatable view!! Very recommendable!

Pure Nature! Warm showers, excellent fishing, mini golf, hire a boat and a great view and sunset.

auto-translated: Very simple campsite. Sanitary facilities are old and worn, but clean. The few pitches are very scattered. The garbage containers overflow and can be easily observed from some pitches.
Conclusion: If you want to stay overnight near Bergen at the sea, that is ok, otherwise no recommendation.
