Lillehammer
Lillehammer, meaning ‘little rocky hill’, is perched on the banks of the picturesque Lake Mjosa in southern Norway. This popular skiing town gained international notoriety when it successfully hosted the 1994 Winter Olympic Games. Many of the town’s popular tourist attractions can be attributed to this event, however, the town is undeniably an attraction in itself. With its beautifully preserved traditional wooden buildings, some of Norway’s most spectacular scenery right on its doorstep and its main street lined with lovely boutiques, excellent restaurants and delightful cafes, this laid back town is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, food lovers and shoppers alike.
Whether you are seeking art, culture, historic sites or some exciting adventure in the wild, you will find plenty to thrill and entertain you in this charming holiday resort.
