Tverrfjellhytta, The Observation Pavilion Enriching Norway’s Unique Landscape And Fauna History

At around 1250 meters above sea level, the building serves as an observation pavilion for the Wild Reindeer Foundation educational programs. Its unique location, the Dovrefjell mountain, is home to Europe’s last wild reindeer herds and is the natural habitat for many other rare endemic plants and animals, including musk oxen and arctic foxes. “[Dovrefjell] holds a unique place in Norwegian consciousness through a wide range of tales and myths connected to the mountains. It has a long history filled with travelers, hunting traditions, mining, and military activities,” explains the firm.
