2 Things Campers in Norway Should Know

Is Wild Camping allowed in Norway?

Contrary to popular belief, the Norwegian Allemannsretten (Everyman's Right in English) applies exclusively to tent campers. Although motorhomes are tolerated in many places, you should be aware that you are camping in the wild at your own risk. Campers who want to be on the safe side should stick to the nice campsites listed here on camping.info. You must also follow these rules when wild camping in Norway:

  • don't camp on private property
  • keep enough distance to residences or private property (min. 150m)
  • don't leave waste behind
  • don't light an open fire
  • don't stay in one place for more than two nights in a row
  • treat nature with respect

What is the best way to get to Norway for camping?

To get to Norway, you can either take the land route or the water route.

You can take the ferry from Hirtshals in Denmark to Kristiansand or Langesund in Norway. You can also get to this popular camping destination directly by sea from Germany, departing from Kiel and arriving in Oslo or Gothenburg. Especially with large vehicles, the cost of the ferry can be somewhat higher. But the overland route is not free either, as it leads across the Öresund Bridge from Denmark to Sweden, which is subject to tolls. The price of the toll depends on the type and length of the vehicle. For vehicles over 6 metres long, you pay €112. Once you arrive in Malmö, you drive along the west coast of Sweden to Norway.
