Simple hunting cabin in the Wilderness Adventure in Drangedal with 4 bedrooms and 19 beds for rent during the summer. The cabin is located at the end of a gravel road about 5 kilometers from county road 3310. It is idyllically situated along a tributary to the Kragerø watercourse. Living here gives you access to a large network of cycling, hiking, and paddling trips right outside the door. The cabin is only a 40-minute drive from Sommarland in Bø. You lock yourself in and have the whole cabin to yourself.
Simple living
This is the place for those who like to live simply and is suitable for families with children or groups of friends. The cabin has an outhouse and is very simply furnished with a gas stove and a power generator for charging phones and lights (a full tank of the generator is included in the rent). The kitchen has the most essential equipment. You cannot shower here, but it's nice to swim nearby. Water is fetched from the pond by the cabin.
Own canoe and free fishing
The cabin has 2 canoes that belong to the cabin, and if you want to fish, it's free to fish in the watercourse in the vicinity. If you're an avid paddler, you can paddle all the way to Kragerø, but canoes/kayaks need to be carried over some stretches to get that far.
The area
The area has its own local history with aircraft wrecks from World War II, located a few kilometers away. There's also a network of marked hiking trails along the county road. The hike to Luberg and Åsland farm is just a few kilometers away. The place is about 15 kilometers from the town of Lunde, where you can shop, see the locks along the Telemark Canal, or explore the Troll car displayed in the center. There are also opportunities for day trips to Kragerø or a trip to Sommarland in Bø. Both places are about 40-50 minutes away.
Other things worth noting:
- The railway line between Drangedal and Lunde is close to the cabin, but you hardly notice it because it is fenced and there are rare departures.
- The water outside the cabin is shallow with mud at the bottom.
- For those who love swimming, it is recommended that you paddle out to the bathing pier located about 50 meters out in the water.
- It is also recommended that you light the fire pit in the evening if there is little wind. This keeps mosquitoes away.
- There are duvets and pillows in the cabins. You bring your own bed linen and clean the cabin after use. Cabin cleaning can also be arranged. Bed linen is available for purchase.
