Explore our charming small town Notodden, which is idyllically located by Heddalsvannet, at the end of the Telemark Canal. We can offer a rich cultural life with one of Europe's largest Blues festival, national and cultural treasures such as Heddal Stave Church and attractions from the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Notodden is worth a visit whether you are on a Norwegian holiday or just passing through. The city and the surrounding area have a lot to offer in terms of activities. The proximity to both water and mountains offers a variety of opportunities. In the summer, activities such as hiking, fishing, cycling, swimming and kayaking are popular, while in the winter it is a paradise for everyone who loves skiing!
A little more than 100 years ago, Notodden and Rjukan were the arena for a modern adventure. A visit to the World Heritage Center Rjukan-Notodden industrial heritage makes you better acquainted with the events that gave Notodden and Rjukan a place on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
We hope you find the information you need on this site and that it can inspire you to visit.
Welcome to an idyllic, family-friendly visit!
