Son Spa

We use short-traveled and local food when it is available and create menus accordingly. We are located on the water's edge and the delicacies of the sea are of course one of our specialities. We serve a lot of organic food and have vegetarian options, as well as small dishes and a children's menu. Our menu is Nordic, but we draw inspiration from large parts of the world and have created our own Japanese menu.

Throughout the summer, we have various events and musical features such as acoustic Thursdays and a DJ that creates a great lounge atmosphere.

Eidsvoll 1814 – Norwegian Center for Constitution

As the place where the Norwegian Constitution was drawn up and signed in 1814, Eidsvollsbygningen (Eidsvoll Manor House) is one of Norway’s most important national symbols.

Today, the museum encompasses the house itself, along with ancillary buildings and surrounding park, the Democracy Centre Wergeland’s House, ticket sales and souvenir shop, the museum shop, Kafé Standpunkt with al fresco seating, and outdoor exhibitions.

Eidsvollsvollsbygningen

As the place where the Norwegian Constitution was drawn up and signed in 1814, Eidsvollsbygningen is one of Norway’s most important national symbols. The Constituent Assembly was made up of 112 delegates, who gathered here from 10 April to 20 May 1814. The Assembly declared Norway an independent nation, after more than 400 years of union with Denmark, gave the country a constitution and elected a king. The Constitution is dated 17 May 1814, which is celebrated as Norway’s national day.

In 1814 Eidsvollsbygningen was a private home belonging to the owner of Eidsvoll Ironworks. It is a beautiful example of neoclassical architecture, whose design draws inspiration from the ideals of antiquity, and it is unparalleled in Norway.

Hvalstjern rundt

There are two route options: one is 9.4 km long and the shorter one is 7.9 km. The longer route is marked in green on the signs, and the shorter one is marked in red. On the signs, the routes are described as 10 km and 8 km respectively. This description covers the longer route. The shorter route is a good alternative if you prefer walking mostly on roads (a little bit easier hike)

From the Hvalstjern parking lot, the hike passes Hvalstjern beach and continues along a road for about 1.5 km. Then, turn right onto a trail—it is well signposted. Abbortjern is a picturesque pond along the trail. Near Tretysjøhytta, there is a small lean-to shelter. It is recommended to take a break here as the view over Breidsjøen and the surrounding area is beautiful.

Please note that about halfway through the hike, there is a short section where logging has taken place. It may be difficult to spot the trail here. If you are unsure of the path, it’s a good idea to use the GPS track available in the Ti på topp app to ensure you stay on the right trail.

The route goes through open forest and along the edges of marshlands. There are many wooden walkways (klopper) laid out to improve accessibility.

Kjærringtjern lies right next to the trail, as well as an old timber cabin named Skogheim. The trail then continues over Poståsen and back to Hvalstjern parking.

This is a varied and scenic loop with some sections involving steep climbs.
