In the heart of Norway's beautiful landscape lies Bakkelund Backpackers, a unique place where nature experiences and cozy atmosphere go hand in hand. Here, surrounded by rolling hills and lush nature, you will find both affordable beds in dorms and private rooms, all built by loving, artistic hands. Our location offers a breathtaking view that takes your breath away, providing an inner peace that only nature can offer.
With us, you can truly unwind and enjoy a life at a slower pace. Enjoy the common areas, which include a fully equipped kitchen and a cozy living room where backpackers from all over the world share stories and experiences. We believe in the social aspect of traveling, and therefore regularly organize social evenings at our communal barbecue area. Free Wi-Fi is included, so you can easily keep in touch with both new and old friends.
For the adventurous, we offer bike and ski rentals, so you can explore the nature around us at your own pace. After a day outdoors, you can relax in our traditional sauna (please notify in advance for booking). We are proud to be both family-friendly and pet-friendly, so everyone is welcome to experience our freedom and community.
Come and experience what many have called Norway's coziest place for backpackers. Let yourself be enchanted by our remote paradise, and create memories that last a lifetime. We look forward to welcoming you to Bakkelund!

I am a 45-year-old man running a guesthouse in Ås, 30 minutes south of Oslo. I have built up Bakkelund Backpackers over the last ten years. Here you will find budget cabins, all built from recycled materials and with care for nature. It is set up for a relaxed pace in beautiful surroundings. Buses to and from Oslo run every half hour with only a 5-minute walk to the bus stop. We have a sauna, yoga platform, football/volleyball court, reggae bar, outdoor kitchen, outdoor shower, hot tub, slackline, table tennis, and WiFi.
