Spacious 15 m2 heated and insulated photo hide with separate toilet room.
Comfortable chairs and beds for 4 persons.

7 camera slots: Chairs for 4 photographers (one photographer can only use one camera, the three others 2 cameras)

The hide is located in Rendalen about 4 hours north of Oslo.
Beautiful view over the the landscape of beautiful Rendalen with the majestic mountain Sølen as background.
The hide is located at 800 moh at a remote location free from human disturbance of any kind.
The eagles are very active visiting the site and our clients have had a very high success rate photographing the eagles!

There is only a few meters to walk so the hide is well suited for handicapped or other persons that find it hard to walk for long distances or in rough terrain.
As long as you`re able to walk a few meters you will be able to use the hide and your guide will of course assist you if needed.

Distance to the animals: 15 meter <
Recommended focal length: > 200 mm

Slight backlight in the morning, sidelight during day and light from behind the hide at sunset.
3/8" screw mount for gimbals.

You will be brought up to the hide by your guide after dark and sleep comfortably there.
After a day of photography starting before sunrise, you will be picked up after sunset by your guide.
From inside the hide you can from mid-march also hear the sound of black grouse lekking in the early morning.

If you are lucky and the weather is good there is great possibilities for photographing the northern lights outside the hide at night!

Most common species:
Golden eagle, raven, siberian jay, hooded crow, eurasian jay and great spotted woodpecker.

More rare species:
Red fox, wolverine, marten, white tailed eagle.

If you need a place to sleep and rest the night before or after visiting the hide I highly recommend Øiseth Hotell just 13,5 km south of where you will park during your stay at the hide.
Very nice food & staff!
Let them know you are here because of the eagle hide and you will get a discount!

I have a strong focus on working with local partners!
The hide was buildt with great help from Byggtorget Åkrestrømmen in Rendalen
(Byggpartner AS).
