The Trail Way

Welcome to Bjerka!

Welcome to Bjerka, an small place with grand experiences! Right here, tucked just in-between Mosjøen and Mo i Rana, the distance is short between mighty mountains and beautiful fjords. This tiny village and its surrounding area have a historical buzz about them. And its scenic surroundings will take you all the way up to the very roof of Northern Norway. Facing southeast, you will find the mountain massif Okstindan, with its ancient Okstind-glacier and Northern Norway's highest mountain, Oksskolten, who towers majestically over the surrounding peaks. 1916 meters above sea level. These mighty surroundings have for hundreds of years been both a source of inspiration and a challenge for the people who dwell here, fostering experienced mountain walkers as well as creative entrepreneurs. Here you can take part in a spectacular overnight trip with the opportunity for glacier-hiking and a dip in Mørkbekktjønna with its 9,000-year-old glacial water. The latter is, of course, optional and for the extra frisky. Or perhaps you think it's more than enough to take in the fresh mountain air and the completely exhilarating view from Northern Norway's highest point. Welcome to Northern Norway's roof and the Mountain Way!
