About this campground
Midway between Skjolden and Fortun, in a lush valley surrounded by steep mountains, lies Vassbakken by the national tourist road Sognefjellsvegen. In the north, we border the Jotunheimen National Park with Hurrungane and Turtagrø, a well-known area for climbing, skiing, summit tours and mountain hiking. The town of Skjolden is located at the end of Lustrafjorden, a fjord arm of Sognefjorden - the world's longest fjord. The area also borders the Breheimen National Park, with opportunities for walks in lush stølsdalers, impressive glaciers and barren high mountain terrain. An hour's drive away is Jostedalen National Park with Nigardsbreen. In Fortunselva you can fish for salmon and sea otters.

There are also several interesting cultural monuments here, such as Urnes stave church, which is Norway's oldest stave church and on UNESCO's list of the world's best-preserved cultural monuments. At Vassbakken Kro og Camping you will find cabins, buildings and tent pitches sheltered by beautiful birch trees. We have a campsite with 13 cabins of different standards and sizes, space for approx. 50 tents or wagons and sanitary facilities and a kiosk with a small selection of colonial goods. In the town you will also find Skjolden Hostel with 23 newly renovated rooms. Here there is also a cozy inn with all dishes and serving traditional Norwegian food. In the center of Skjolden you will find a shop with a post office and the Fjordstova mixed-use building, with, among other things, an indoor swimming pool and a climbing wall.
