Plenty to Do for All Ages!
Sea Fishing and Boat Rental
Many of our visiting tourists are fishermen. We have Kværnø boats (19 ft and 22 ft) with Yamaha engines available for rent. There are great opportunities for spectacular nature experiences, whether it's catching the biggest halibut or spotting porpoises and seals in the sea. Perhaps you might even be lucky enough to see a whale! Sea otters roam around the rocks, curious about hikers. A multitude of birds nest on the islets, and the sea eagle majestically circles above it all.
Rent a boat and go sea fishing for cod, coley, and halibut, or catch mackerel from the rocks (video from sea fishing 2016).
Fishing and Mountain Hiking
Roan offers many nature experiences, including in the mountains. The area is rich in wildlife, with great opportunities to see moose, roe deer, foxes, and hares. In the summer, sheep from local farmers roam freely in the mountains, and it's a delight to encounter them. Many mountain lakes are home to large, beautiful trout, and we can help you obtain a fishing permit if needed.
We can recommend beautiful hikes in the surrounding areas. There are also many well-marked trails. On a clear day, you can see Halten out on the horizon. There is an abundance of berries and mushrooms, and if you're here at the right time, you can come home with a full container of cloudberries.
The steep mountain slopes around the fjords are suitable for rock climbing, ice climbing, and base jumping.
The area is also popular among kayakers. Let your paddle break the reflection of the sunset as you glide quietly over clear waters.
Klumpen Climb
Klumpen is a small mountain located at Hongsand. It's a short and pleasant hike of about 30 minutes, with a clear and well-marked trail. We have established three climbing routes with top anchors, and the routes are also suitable for traditional climbing. Please bring your own rope and other safety equipment.
