TravellerDog Explores Elgå, Norway

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Mama took me, the TravellerDog, to Elgå, Norway! This little place is located in the southern part of the Scandi-mountain range and is therefore fairly accessible.

When in this stunning area, we camped at the beautiful big lake Femunden. A public ferry runs on the lake, although we didn’t take it.

Elgå also has a nice Sami-museum that we think is well worth exploring. Dogs are allowed inside the museum, so I got to learn about the Samis and their way of life. The museum isn’t big, but it does a great job in describing the Sami culture, handicraft and the history of the region.

However, in Norway dogs need to always and forever be on a leash, no matter if you are in the depths of a forest or in a town. I didn’t like that policy, so we didn’t stay for long in Norway. Mama and I think Sweden is a better destination for people traveling with dogs. In the section Plan a Trip – Sweden you find information on what you can do in Sweden, how to travel domestically and where dogs are allowed.
