Steinbui - gammel fjellhytte off the grid

The small cabin is beautifully located on the edge of Jotunheimen, surrounded by majestic mountains, where you can enjoy the silence and beauty of nature. It is a charming, old cabin that gives you an authentic mountain experience. Here you will not find any city noises, only the sound of birdsong, streams, the wind and in the summer maybe some sheep.

Right behind the cabin is a protected old stone hut from the 17th century, which was used by reindeer hunters - this was the main feature of the animals between both east/west and north/south.

The cabin consists of a single room, as the pictures show, where the beds are together with a kitchenette and seating area. You must bring your own sleeping bag and towels for your stay. 
The kitchenette has simple but functional kitchen equipment. 
Here you will find a wood stove and a gas burner for cooking. 
We have pots, pans and basic utensils so that you can prepare your own meals. 
The living room has a rustic charm with a view of the mountains.
It is a great place to enjoy meals together and share stories of the day's adventures.

We have a traditional outdoor toilet available on the property for guests to use. 
Please note that there is no running water at the cabin, so there is no shower. However, you can fetch fresh water from the nearby lakes, and feel free to take a bath if you wish - but the water is rarely hot.
We also recommend that you bring your own toilet paper and other personal toiletries.

Firewood and gas are included in the price!

The cabin is an old gem with character. The walls and floor may be crooked, and when it rains, it may drip from the roof. But this is part of the charm and authenticity of the cabin. We are constantly working to maintain it, but we also want guests to understand that they will experience some of the small challenges that come with an older cabin. It is part of the experience!

The cabin is about an hour's walk from the parking lot, in mountainous terrain on a marked trail. 
Steep at first and easier later. 
In winter you are completely dependent on skis or snowshoes!

Wear good shoes, remember your headlamp, and be aware that there is very poor to no phone coverage. Although we leave some necessities in the cabin, it may be a good idea to bring matches, some toilet paper and maybe some candles - especially if you are going to spend several days. Make it nice for the next guest :-)

Remember to leave the cabin the way you want to find it, take your trash with you and keep it clean.

Please remember to take care of the surrounding nature, and leave the cabin the way you want to find it.

We look forward to welcoming you!

Feedback from previous guests:

'Beautiful place, we spent the night in a fishing cabin, listening to the wind, admiring the beautiful mountains and lakes. Everything according to the description. Thank you for a great adventure.'

'What a fantastic place and cabin, we loved it! The luxury of being alone in the mountains, having this view, washing/swimming in one of the many lakes, hiking to some of the mountain peaks around the cabin.... it was truly an unforgettable experience. The cabin itself was very nice and cozy. And very complete. '

'It is an absolutely fantastic accommodation in a fantastic location. You will feel very connected to nature here. Don't expect phone signal or electricity, but still in our eyes it was a five star hotel. It is a place with its own soul, which will steal your heart, if you love nature.'
