Four nights at Navardalen wilderness lodge. This is by far the coziest place we can think of to celebrate New Year’s. The rooms are basic but comfortable and clean. Expect to share with one or two other people since the rooms have 2-4 beds each. There are no regular bathrooms, but dry toilets in a separate building and you can wash yourself in the sauna, either by heating up water in a bucket over fire or by taking a dip in the frozen lake. There is no electricity. Perfect ?
