The Stordal River and Overøye Ski Centre

We’re soon crossing the Stordal River, which flows down from the mountains and out into the Storfjord. The river is the lifeline of the valley — providing power, food, and a rich habitat for wildlife. On warm summer days, you’ll often see anglers standing along the banks, hoping to catch trout or salmon, just as people here have done for generations. From this area, you can also turn off toward Overøye and Stordalsfjellet, home to Arena Overøye, a modern ski resort with several slopes, lifts, and cross-country trails. In winter, it’s a popular destination for both locals and visitors, while summer invites you to peaceful mountain hikes and quiet reflection. Stordal is a place where nature is part of everyday life — a source of work, recreation, and pure joy, all year round.
