The final part! Hope you enjoyed this mini series in Norway - thanks to all who watched and commented 🌲
I could live in a place like that forever. I like it quiet and secluded. Simple. Little interaction with the outside world. Healing.
Your videos radiate peace and relaxation and remind me again of what is important to me. thank you for that🙏
Thank you so much for watching and I definitely share your thoughts and feelings too!
Very interesting seeing the animal tracks in the snow.. the little ones so cute. 5 days without seeing another soul - bliss 🙂
Thanks for watching 😀
A great series of videos with the opening drone shots really beautiful.
I agree completely with ALL your comments regarding land use and land rights in Scotland.
Modern Norway as we know it now is the result of not only the recent huge oil wealth but from the working class struggles of the 1930s where the power of the 1% elite were removed from positions of power and influence in land owning rights, farming, industry and in government.
The result of this struggle has resulted in the high degree of democracy and economic justice which continues to steer the country today.
This is why they are a successful independent country. Now look at Scotland ...
Thanks for watching John, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant series of your Norway 🇳🇴 trip, as always Sam, entertaining and informative.
Nice one fella
😊👊🌟
Thanks so much for watching as always Chief 👍🏻
Absolute belter of a series bud. Thanks for pointing out where you were, it looks like the most affordable way of getting myself and the boss into Norway for a play. Looking forward to the next video. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching as always! 😀👍
Thanks for that beautiful view up the top. Wow. Don't think I would have wanted to leave. Very enjoyable. Thanks Sam look forward to the next.❤
Thank you Catherine!
Those snow-crunching sounds are larger than life, Sam, so much so that all I could see throughout much of this video was the post-production stage with you squatting in front of your laptop and scrunching Rice Krispies wrapped in a tea towel in time with your on-screen footfall! As for the Forest Thoughts, well rarely have you been so animated. I fact, 'vast' at 24.10 reminded me of the old joke about the fisherman on the phone in the telephone box bragging about his catch, flinging out his arms to demonstrate the (exaggerated) size of the fish, smashing the glass windows left & right … and slashing his wrists. Good thing the cabin was bigger than a phone box. Good thing, too, that you're home - otherwise you might well morph into the sort of over-confident extrovert that those who follow you really wouldn't want you to be. 😜Excellent mini-series - many thanks for sharing the experience!
Postscript: re your discussion of Scottish land ownership, today's Guardian (14/03/24) carried a really interesting report on the impending land reform bill which may force anyone selling an estate of more than 1000 ha to split it into smaller lots: "Scottish lairds may be forced to break up estates during land sales". All is far from lost …
Fantastic comment as always Robert 😀 I'd like to admit that I planned it that but the truth is it was a lucky coincidence ! I did however adjust the release of this video to coincide with the new Land Reform bill 👍
Hi sam loved your trip to Norway 🇳🇴 what great content for the channel mate very informative as usual keep up the great work mate. Atb Wullie ✊🏻🏴
Thanks Wullie, appreciate the support 😄👍🏻
Very nice ending. Thank you very much for all the interesting information and thanks for sharing. 🙏🏼😊
Thank you for watching them all 😁
@@HighlandWoodsman Always a pleasure 😌
I love seeing your perspective of what we (Norwegians) take for granted! We have a long tradition for building and owning small cabins in the wild. These days they are solely for recreational purposes, but they also have been used for a safe haven when travelling over the mountains, hunting and berry-picking. Unfortunately nowadays people build big house-sized cabins with all the facilities, in what we call cabin cities in the mountains, and we rapidly loose too much wild nature to greedy developers...and the local governments too often approve on the destruction of new areas to cabin building. (As a land-owner in Norway, you are not allowed to make huge impact on vulnerable areas without approvement from the authorities. Most of the mountainous areas are owned by the people, and either managed by the state or local mountain governs) The area you were in is most likely an old cabin area, where the cabins are smaller, more spread out and hidden from sight. Usually you don't own the land, but buy or rent a fixed spot on where you are allowed to build your cabin. I hope that was helpful? 🙂 The tracks you followed looked like a big fox. Lynx prints would have been more round in shape and most often no visible claw marks, wolverine has two big front paws with five toes (like a bear) and claws and småller hind legs and it mostly runs in small jumps, not a trot. And a wolf has a lot bigger paws and stride length. 🙂
Thanks so much for watching and your comment - it's so interesting to hear from a native! People always have to try an go 'bigger and better' in the greediest sense. I had heard about these mountain villages and the pressures they are putting on fragile landscapes, humanity never seem to learn from past mistakes - money always talks! Do you buy or rent the cabin spot from the government or private land owners? Thank you for the tracking tips too!
@@HighlandWoodsman it depends. Sometimes the area is privately owned, sometimes several land owners join to make these villages, and sometimes the government will assign an area owned by the state for cabin building. You are rarely allowed to build just one, single cabin all by yourself on land owned by the state, but might on private land if the land owner is willing. Then you might be able to buy a small piece of land too. The exception to this rule are cabins buildt by the Norwegian tourist association (DNT), the hunting- and fishing association (NJF), and by the states forestery management (Statsskog), and maybe other organisations on occasion. These cabins are either open for public use for free (Statskog) or you are able to rent them. 🙂 I love this concept, and don't feel the need to have my own cabin because of it. You've got what you need, and no worries about taking care of it or chopping wood, and you can go to a different place every time! 😊👍
Yes I'm always jealous of not just the scale of forest you have there but so many cabins, shelters and trails to access. You could do a different one every weekend for the rest of your life 😁 I stayed in one of the bigger DNT huts near Trondheim a couple of years ago and it was just fantastic. There's definitely a huge cultural difference here, there just isn't an appreciation for that kind of thing here because most people have never had a chance to experience it. Thanks so much for all that information, genuinely interesting.
@@HighlandWoodsman you're welcome! I hope I wasn't boring you! 😊 This topic, and the preservation of the wild, lies dear to my heart. ❤️🐾🌲🌳🍄🌿🏔️
@@HikingWithHenry I could talk about this stuff all day, really appreciate the interaction 😁
Beautiful videos! So glad to see you enjoying our country and nature:) Hope to have u back soon!
Thank you 😁
Looked like a great trip and thanks for sharing. I have travelled to Norway a few times and always loved it. That said, i always fancied a couple of nights in one of US fire watch towers during winter.
Thanks Ed 👍
Wow, talk about a dream destination… picture perfect and peaceful… back to nature and taking it all in!! The life hey…. I am always so envious of countries like this… that makes the outdoors part and parcel of your daily life/lifestyle too, that is, if you want/or are interested in that outdoor recreational living …
The affordability and accessibility to such places/areas …it’s like a wow 🤩 starry eyed moment … but then the realisation hits you… the restrictions we have where we live … the grossly overpriced and most times unattainable dream, of being able to afford to buy a small plot/piece of land, build a cabin/cottage/tiny home and live off the land… which is my ultimate dream.. but alas… you said it perfectly in your forest thoughts 💭 100% … I could go on and on about these wealthy landowners/grabbers … BUT I’ll 🤐
Really did feel like I was isolated from the world for a week, so good!
I always enjoy your videos, and I know exactly what you mean when you say you have not seen anyone for days, I've lived in a park home in a town for 4 years It's lovely but you feel hemmed in. Long story short, I'm up for sale and hoping to move back into the countryside which is where my place of work is, Just managed to get a large allotment surrounded by fields one of 14, i used to have one there over 5 years ago. Half of it is going to be strictly for nature with a pond ,the other half for vegetables. That's my little piece of heaven. I expect your'e back now and planning your next trip. thanks so much for sharing 😊
Thanks as always Tracy! That sounds fantastic, best of luck with your new allotment! 😀
@@HighlandWoodsman Thank you :)
Loved pt 3. Your description of the trees present in the area was spectacular. Going uphill with snowshoes is a fun experience. A question? Does the slower growth in the spruce higher up make them more dense? Thx for sharing your experience!!!
Yes it does make them more dense as the cells and therefore the tree rings are much 'tighter'. Thanks for watching!
It is interesting when you talk about the lack of public access to land in Scotland. I think a big reason that u find all this free and accessible nature in Norway is what is called the Free Roaming Law, which grants every citizen access to nature as long as u are not in someones backyard:) The woods u are currently in is most likely private own but this law ensure ur rights to freeely use it as long as u treat it with respect etc.
We do have similar law when it comes to hiking and camping but we mostly have no access to forage, hunt or build cabins like these etc
Great vid. May I ask you how did you find this cabin and how much it cost? I know DNT cabins in Norway, but this one is something else. Thanks.
There are loads of cabins like this on AirBnB. This one was just €26 / night.
What's stopping you from living in Norway? It suits you.
Honestly? Probably my own self confidence to actually do it.
🦊🦊
I never did find out what those other tracks were! The video I took wasn't very clear so I didn't include it.
@HighlandWoodsman i was thinking about the tracks from the photos you sent over, and it might just have been hare tracks, not as exciting, perhaps 😅
