Risor Area Information
The area is in a farming community where the main commodity is logging. You are free to roam where you like and there are walks directly from the house.
Every season has its advantages at Lovlia. Each season is more defined than the UK. We have recorded temperatures from plus 30 degreed in the summer and minus 30 in the winter!! During the summer the water is warm enough to swim in the lake or perhaps take a trip to to the small local beach, just 5 mins by car from the house.
Autumn: The colours of the trees and the mist over the lake offer great opportunities for photography and painting. Or perhaps berry picking. Blueberries and cranberries grow wild in the forest behind the house. Or if you know what you are doing, there are wild mushrooms galore.
Winter: The landscape changes and snow is usual from mid November and in December the lake is usually frozen. This offers great opportunities for x country skiing, skating, ice fishing or just walking in the snow. There are walks from house.
Spring: The ice is melting and it is a wonderful time to visit Norway. Especially around the 17th of May there is a colourful time on the National Day.
This holiday accommodation has fabulous views overlooking the lake. In the lake during the right seasons you can fish for trout perch and even the occasional salmon. There are nets that can be put out and an area where you can BBQ your catch. The lake is ideal for swimming too.
Wildlife. You will see an abundance of wildlife, depending on the season. There is a resident family of beavers which if you are lucky you can see. Plus an elk (moose) safari can be arranged into the local forests. Bird life too is in abundance, from water birds to birds of prey. There have been reports too of the occasional wolf in the area!
CHRISTMAS
Lovlia is available over Christmas and New Year. Although the house is not situated at a very high altitude, in a usual year there will be snow from mid November up until mid March. During January the lake freezes and depending on conditions it is possible to walk and skate and take a spark (chair on skiis) or x country skis. There will be a 95% chance of a white Christmas although of course this cannot be guaranteed. Lovlia is ideally situated to take a day trip up to the local ski centre at Gautefall which is about 90 Kms away and can be reached in about 90 minutes. There are local sledging hills and Risør is a quiet but pretty place to visit in the winter. Lovlia is a place to relax in during the winter. In front of the cozy log fire or on the balcony in front of the open fire with a hot chocolate.
From its sunny coastline to inland mountain plateaus, pine forests and spectacular fjords, it's no wonder that Southern Norway is the Norwegians choice for a holiday destination.
With summer temperatures often reaching the 80's newcomers are surprised at how different this region can be from their expectations. It isn't just about snow and mountains (though you can still find them in abundance - it is Norway after all!); there are sandy beaches, quiet country walks, family entertainment, exciting adventures - Southern Norway has something for everyone.
It is easy to fall in love with Risør. This white town on the Skagerrak is the melting pot of Sørlandet. Outer Risør has the magnificent archipelago and romantic Sørland houses which stand shoulder to shoulder around the beautiful harbour. Everything goes on inside Risør.
Street life is more continental than Norwegian. There is activity all around and things are constantly going on like the Chambermusic Festival, the Arts and Crafts Festival and the International Woodenboat Festival.
Risør is also known for its galleries, three of them are open all year round. During the summer comes at least three more, which is quite good considering that Risør town has only 7.000 inhabitants.
