About Vansjø
Vansjø is a paradise for paddling and outdoor activities. The lake has fjords, islands, and islets. Vestre Vansjø and Moskjæra are nature reserves. The lake is among the most species-rich in Norway. Here, you can find carp, three-spined stickleback, trout, eel, and at least 17 other species. The birdlife is an important reason for the area’s protection. Both coots, ospreys, common buzzards, and many others nest here. And, of course, the beaver thrives here.
Established rules for Vansjø: Take all garbage home. Do not harm healthy trees. Do not disturb animals, birds, and nests. Campfires are prohibited (during the paddling season). Otherwise, it is allowed to enjoy, swim, pick berries, and much more.
