It is one of the few cities in Norway that is not located on the coast, and therefore has a relatively cold inland climate during the winter season. Several of Norway’s best resorts are in the area around Lillehammer. The city center is small and compact, and you orient yourself quickly on foot. Most of the shops are located in and around the pedestrian street Storgata, which largely consists of low, old, protected wooden houses.

Lillehammer is an Eldorado for winter tourists, but also has plenty to offer in the summer. Not only nature experiences, but also attractions and sights such as. Maihaugen. Fishing enthusiasts get to sit along the barn or in the many mountain streams and lakes.
