Birthday Parties. How about inviting to the birthday celebration with dogsledding and farm visits? Great success with everyone who has tried!

Dog sledding. Being out with a dog team is a great way to experience nature. On Berg Vang can be a passenger or drive yourself.

Horse riding. We offer riding excursions in our great community at Semsvannet. Hourly tours / day trips or on request.

Events. If you and your colleagues / friends want to try something new and fun – add the next Kick off with activities to us.

Farm Visit. Kindergartens and schools that have been here often start with a walk around the farm to greet all the animals. Afterwards they eat, and then we take any dog ​​racing to finish. The dogs are very popular, and dog sledding is great fun!

Our Farm Shop Come in for a nice trade of yarn from your own animals, various products in wool from Lovley Planet, or enjoy a cup of good coffee, broth and enjoy the atmosphere in our cafe or in the garden.

Welcome to Bergvang Gård.

Kind regards from Eileen & Sven-Erik

The Prairie Wagon

The Prairie Wagon

Stay in a charming prairie wagon, just a few meters from the water. The wagon features a comfortable double bed and a large window that lets you wake up to a stunning view of the lake. The balcony faces the evening sun, and around you, horses graze in the open landscape.

This is the perfect getaway for two people seeking something truly special – a taste of the Wild West combined with modern comfort. The wagon has a touch of luxury and a nostalgic cowboy atmosphere.

Amenities:

The prairie wagon has a fire pit and a gas stove for cooking. For lighting, there’s a solar lamp and candles.

We provide made-up beds and clean towels.

There is a bathroom with a toilet and shower in the barn, about 70 meters away. The barn also has a refrigerator for storing food and drinks.

About the place:

The prairie wagon is located on the Basnes peninsula by Lake Mjermen. We dare say that Basnes is one of the most beautiful places in Eastern Norway. It's a working small farm with lots of horses. The farmyard is cozy, with charming houses and a barn built in a traditional Norwegian farmhouse style, mixed with a rugged western/ranch aesthetic.

The prairie wagon is set apart by the water, just a short walk from the farmyard, with complete privacy except for views from the lake. The area is fenced in, so you have it all to yourself. Parking is available at the farmyard.

The sandy beach is about 50 meters from the prairie wagon – perfect for morning swims and sunbathing.

Additional information:

The prairie wagon is part of the Basnes Trail Rides concept. We offer horseback rides and western-themed experiences. Your stay can be combined with a trail ride or other adventures.

The area where the prairie wagon is located is fenced off so the horses don’t come too close. The herd is calm and friendly, and you can walk through the pasture. However, feeding the horses is strictly forbidden! Feeding them will cause them to crowd around you, which can lead to conflicts among the horses as they all want treats.

Prices:

  • From NOK 2500 (for 2 nights or more)

  • One night: NOK 3000

  • Package with horseback ride and overnight stay: NOK 4000
