Treetop Cabin on the Mountain at Ekne

"Live slowly for a while and be in contact with nature"

Stay in a cabin on stilts out on the mountain and feel the sensation of 'floating over the water'.

Cook in the cabin's kitchen, or at the fire pit outside on the terrace. Feel the cozy warmth in the cabin when you light the stove. The experience of simple living allows for reflection and peace, close to nature.

On the terrace, you can enjoy a cup of coffee and a good book in a hammock built into the terrace. Close your eyes while you sway in the hammock and enjoy the view over the 5 km long Byavatnet and Trondheimsfjorden.

Follow a marked and accessible gravel/tile path to the cabin. From the parking lot, it is a 1 km walk to the cabin. You walk past fields and an ancient troll forest before you reach the mountain where the cabin floats above the terrain with a magical view over Byavatnet and Trondheimsfjorden.

The cabin is unique with its location and architecture. You can open the folding door and folding window and let nature into the cabin. Or lie in the hammock on the terrace under the roof and enjoy the view and the tranquility that nature gives you.

This cabin has five sleeping places. A large double bed (180cm) with a panoramic view over Byavatnet and the surrounding mountains (downstairs), upstairs in the loft you can sleep under the skylight and look up at the sky (120cm bed and 150cm bed). There are 5 duvets (140x220cm) and pillows in the cabin. Bed linen and small towels are included and are located in the cabin. The cabin is built on stilts (pine trees), when it blows, it feels good inside the cabin. An exciting experience.

The cabin has a bathroom with a bio toilet and water from a bucket by the sink. Power for lights and for charging phones, etc., comes from a solar panel system (12v). The kitchen is equipped with what you need for cooking and has a gas refrigerator and 2 gas burners, as well as a wood stove with a cooking top and a sink with a water bucket. Outside on the veranda, there are 5 good chairs and a bench around a fire pit. Here you can grill and enjoy the nature around.
