In Rauland you can go on an elk safari and meet the "king of the forest" in his natural element.
It's not without reason that the elk is called the "king of the forest" – with a shoulder height of up to 2.3 metres and a length of up to 3.2 metres, the impressive animal is always a stunning sight.
In Rauland you have the chance to get up close to the big animals. Here you can go on an elk safari with Rauland Tourist during the summer season. The tour goes through the beautiful forest and mountain terrain, and along the way the guides tell about both elk and other wild animals of the area.
If you visit Rauland outside the summer season, you can make the trip on your own – Rauland Tourist has posted the route map on their website, marking where you have the best chance of meeting the big animals.
