CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING: VENABU This is a great location to get away from the daily frustrations of work, commuting etc. The location is absolutely stunning when the sun is out. This holiday is suitable for cross country skiiers of all levels from beginners to more advanced.
Kamben Hotel provided a lovely base for cross country skiing. Food was well presented and plentiful. Enjoyed the fact you were served your evening meals. There were always plenty of options for packed lunches at the breakfast buffet, although some mornings this could feel a little busy when the hotel is full and everyone descends at the same time. The bedroom allocated was large and clean ( in the newer section). Underfloor heating in bathroom was a treat. December-January weather was kind and very light wind meant temperatures were ideal (-7-12).
Walking the Fjords - Norway An excellent holiday! The walking was wonderful, the scenery stunning, food fantastic, and the guide generous, (I like alliteration!). We stayed at Ned Guard where our room was very comfortable and the staff brilliant. Our guide, Asbjorn Manum, was a wonderful host who shared his love of hiking with the group. A gentleman of, let's say, more mature years, but still walked up the steepest slopes like a youngster.
