Lake Mjosa

Travelling east we arrived at Lake Mjosa  and to our campsite for the day at Redalen.  The lake was over a metre higher than normal and half the campsite was under water.  A few caravans were stranded on islands but the majority had been moved to higher ground but their decking had floated off into the distance.     




We all enjoyed a relaxing day with a short walk up to another waterfall and a bit of fishing on the river entrance to the lake - no fish this time. 


The next day we crossed the bridge over to Hamar, one of the towns used in the 1994 Winter Olympics. The wetland area we had come to see was completely submerged so we continued our journey down towards Oslo spending the night at a picnic spot overlooking Hurdalssjoen lake.
