Oppdal Safari has been organizing guided safaris and mountain hikes since 1995 and is today one of the biggest tour guiding companies in our region. Our guides have extensive knowledge and experience in ecology, outdoors and tourism, and is in the best position to give you a safe, challenging and unforgettable experience in our unique environment.

In summer season we have daily guided musk ox safaris, and deer and moose safaris are arranged twice a week. The rest of the year we offer a wide range of activities both for photographers, individuals and events for groups, schools and conference participants.
