Visit the day-trip cabin at Kvilehaugen

The day-trip cabin at Kvilehaugen opened in December 2022 and is fantastically located on Kvilehaugen, just above Jelsa Oppvekstsenter. Here you can take a breather on your way up to Junkervarden, or make the cabin your destination in itself.

The cabin has its own small library, and wool socks are available to borrow for cold feet.
