My name is Bjørn Eide and I own the company Markaopplevelser, which started 10 years ago and is located in Lommedalen.
Join the adventures in our grand nature; Where to find the best lakes for fishing? Where can we experience Blackcock and Tiur mating? Where does the Osprey live? These are examples of experiences I can show you. I share my local knowledge by inspiring and motivating my audience.
I emphasize safe guiding and take you through magnificent scenery.
Nature has always been a place I have lived in close contact with, ever since I was a little boy. With a mother born and raised in Krokskogen, and grandparents who had their work in there, the paths were just waiting for me to explore.
As an active cross-country skier for many years, I have crossed the forest many times. In the summer, I am an avid angler.
I have a lot of local knowledge in Bærumsmarka, Krokskogen, Nordmarka and Vestmarka. I'll be happy to guide you and your colleagues through some splendid nature experiences all year round.f
Welcome.

The islands in Asker and Bærum you can visit:

The island is excellent for families with children and is a popular outdoor harbor for boaters. Toilets. Borøya is the island with the most ferry departures and arrivals, and is only 10 minutes sailing from Sandvika.
Ostøya is a large island with one of Oslo's most beautiful golf courses. Great for swimming and fishing. There is a small beach right by the ferry pier with afternoon sun. There are hiking opportunities on the island, but some scrub. During the mushroom season, Ostøya is an excellent place to "fill the basket"
Brønnøya has three piers where Rigmor stops, and its own cable ferry to the mainland. Great hiking trails, highly recommended for cycling and walking in peaceful and quiet surroundings. Feel free to combine the trip with a stop at some of the small beaches located by the ferry piers at
Brønnøya East and South. It is almost 7 km around the whole island, but the tour can be shortened considerably with roads and paths "across" the island. Cars are not allowed at Brønnøya. Opportunities to get off at one pier and be picked up at another are present. Here there are many cabins and one of the regions best preserved lime kilns on the southern tip. It is also possible to return by bus from Nesøya.
Langåra "Oslofjorden's answer to Sørlandet" is 40 minutes sailing from Sandvika and has been a favorite place for camping throughout history.
Somewhat overgrown but excellent for accommodation, swimming (not sandy beach) and fishing. Here you will find Middagsbukta with bustling boating on one side, and peaceful bathing spots and tent opportunities on the other. There is a marked hiking trail of 3 km. (not suitable for prams). It is also possible to rent accommodation in the old shop building in Middagsbukta through the Oslo Fjord Outdoor Council.
