What other travelers are saying about
Bakkaflöt Campsite
Nice camping… you need to pay 500kr for the shower and includes access to the pool and two hot tubs which were not that hot. Camping price for tent is alright. Nice view to mountains and a river is just beside it.
Probably the best campsite we’ve stayed in. Facilities are great, functional rather than aesthetic, the kitchen in Vik looks nice but other than looks is poorly equipped. Here on the other hand, you have plates, silverware, a cooking space, even a coffee machine (i think). Hot tubes (not so hot, warm enough) and showers are great too. Everything is clean and as I said, functions well. It’s also in a beautiful spot. Overall this is a true 5/5 for once!
We went in june 2025. Nice camping spot, we had a beautifull view near the river. It was pretty much empty, but it is a big campground and could get crowded. It has a well equiped kitchen. Showers are not included and were closed and we arrived.
