Haukelifjell's expansive snowy landscape


At over 1,000 meters above sea level, Haukelifjell in Norway is a highland escape wrapped in snow. Our expedition started at Haukeliseter fjellstue, a welcoming mountain lodge with stunning surroundings.

A lone cabin stood out against the expansive whiteness, its dark wooden exterior contrasting with the snow. This scene embodies the sense of isolation and tranquility found in the highlands—a place to unwind and reflect in the quiet of nature.

Sunset over Haukelifjell


The most memorable moment was the sunset over Haukelifjell, with the sky displaying vibrant shades of orange and purple, creating a magical atmosphere over the snow-covered terrain. This spectacular sight marked the end of a day filled with natural beauty.

Thawing waters of Lake Starvatn


Our final destination was Lake Starvatn, partially frozen with dark, still waters visible through the cracking ice. Even in winter, the lake possessed a unique beauty, each crack in the ice telling a story of resilience and transformation.

Haukelifjell left us with a profound appreciation for the serene beauty and striking contrasts of Norway’s winter landscape. The Recharge Charging Station, an electric vehicle charging point near the lodge, was a reminder of the modern conveniences that enable exploration of these remote regions. Haukelifjell is more than just a destination; it’s an invitation to experience the subtle drama of nature, where every glance reveals a new perspective and every breath feels like a new beginning.
