With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy everything that Hamar, 19 miles away, has to offer. Vikingskipet Arena, Viking Ship Sports Arena and CC Hamar alone make the drive out worth it. Locals are also likely to point you toward Gol, 55 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, make sure it’s Round Trip Gol 1. (But we’re also huge fans of Storefjell Ski and Sledding Center and Round trip Gol 2.)
