Wondering what to do this winter? Here are some tips - whether you’re traveling with children or on your own

There are many beautiful hiking trails in Halden, just as stunning in winter as they are in summer

Welcome to Halden, the Town of Sports Cabins


Halden is home to many outdoor enthusiasts, which is reflected in the number of sports cabins open to the public, more than in neighboring towns. Some of these cabins are located close to the illuminated trails, making them perfect starting points for outings with friends and family. What could be better than warming up inside with a waffle, a soft drink, or a cup of coffee on a cold winter day?

If you enjoy a mix of history, mystery, and adventure, we have a suggestion: an escape room at Fredriksten Fortress.

The escape room at Fredriksten Hotel offers mystery, romance, and thrills. Stop King Charles XII from taking over Fredriksten Fortress, or help the White Lady find true love!

Save Norway from Charles XII
Charles XII is on his way to Fredriksten Fortress to prepare for the battle of Norway. You join a secret group that has planned an assassination to stop the king. Find the right sniper and supply him with gunpowder and bullets.

The White Lady
The White Lady is searching for love but grows increasingly anxious that she will never find it. You must help her find the man of her dreams and ensure her happiness. If you fail, you may be haunted forever!
