"The proudest view in Europe."
This quote is from a book by the famous British mountaineer William
Cecil Slingsby. He was describing the view from "Slogen" - one of the
impressive mountain peaks surrounding the Hotel Union Øye.
The tourist of today will find the same unspoiled natural
environment. We can offer a wide variety of excursions, ranging from
advanced climbing to relatively easy trekking. The hotel 
provides
guests with maps, and for groups we can arrange walks with experienced
mountain guides. The river flowing past the hotel offers salmon fishing,
or you can try your luck with the trout in the mountain lakes. For
those interested in fjord fishing, or perhaps just rowing, there are
rental boats available. Alternatively you may rent a bike and experience
the scenic and untouched Nordang valley which runs from the hotel to
the famous Geirangerfjord.
Sitting at your ease on the hotel porch at the end of an active day,
you will experience, body and soul, the refreshing atmosphere of the
hotel and its surroundings.
