We are located at 1000 masl, a 4-hour drive from all the major cities in southern Norway (Oslo, Stavanger, Bergen, Kristiansand), alongside the road E134. We are open all year round, with a year that varies a lot during the different seasons. Every employee lives here at Haukeliseter, so your colleagues are also the people you socialize with on your spare time. We live quite far from most things, but still never lack anything. We have a grocery store a 30-minute drive from here and have several trips here during most weeks as this also is our closest post office.

Our surroundings are a big reason why people choose to come here for work, as we have endless hiking possibilities all year round. During winter, it is very popular to go skiing, both back country skiing and Randonnée, and we have a ski resort just a 10-minute drive from here that is popular among the staff. During summer, we have hiking routes in every direction, one can go paddling in kayaks on the lake just outside here. Or try to catch some trout in the lake. A lot also go for a swim and then use the sauna down by the water. All rental equipment is available for staff.

Our staff is a mix of nationalities, especially in the kitchen. We are also a mix when it comes to age, but the majority is between 25 and 35 years old.

Our goal is to serve good Norwegian food with a lot of local produce in a cosy environment, and that every guest shall feel a welcoming atmosphere here.
