Welcome to Renndølsetra in Innerdalen

Innerdalen is about 3 hours' drive from Trondheim and Ålesund. Here you can stay, just to relax and enjoy the atmosphere, or as a starting point for hikes in the mountains.

Book accommodation

Every summer, since 1740, the family Opdøl have moved their animals to the summer farm in Innerdalen, in the western part of Trollheimen.

Innerdalstårnet is the destination for most people, but Renndalskammen is our favorite! We also have a café where we serve our famous waffles, some pastry and hot and cold drinks. Renndølsetra is located in Innerdalen Landscape Conservation Area, and you have to walk 3.5 km (about 1 hour) from Nerdalen to get here.
