Summer Activities in Gålå
High and low at Gålå
In the heart of Gålå’s mountain landscape, you’ll find the Høyt & Lavt climbing park. It features several courses with zip lines and challenges for both young and old, whether you want a gentle start or dare to venture to the highest treetops.
You’ll test your balance, height, and courage among pine trees and fresh mountain air, and if you’re high enough, you might even glimpse Lake Gålå.
The climbing park is located next to the ski center and offers a great activity during summer and autumn for families, friends, and businesses.
After a couple of hours on the courses, we bet a break in the sun, a visit to Sans for Gålå (the local café), or just relaxing with a quiet evening in your cabin will taste extra good.
The climbing park is open on weekends until the autumn holidays.
We welcome both young and old!

At the end of Lake Gålå, you’ll find two small wood-fired saunas. Rent a sauna and take a refreshing dip in Lake Gålå.

Festival Summer in Gålå
Peer Gynt Cultural Festival
July 30 – August 13, 2027
Thorbjørn Harr once again takes the stage by Lake Gålå as Peer Gynt. Director Peer Perez Øian promises a musical production with a strong team of actors and musicians.
The festival offers much more than the main performance in Gålå. Peeropolis will be performed on the new stage by Lake Gålå, and there will be a festival exhibition in Galleri Låven.
Other highlights during the cultural festival:
- The High Mountain Concert by Rondane
- The Peer Gynt Party
- Festival Exhibition
During the festival, you can also enjoy good food and drinks from Paa Bordet, both in the restaurants and in the food tent.
Rondaståk Mountain Festival
June 17–20, 2027
In 2026, artists such as Sivert Høyem, Eva Weel Skram, Odd Nordstoga, Violet Road, and the recent Spellemann Award winner Tobias Sten performed in Gålå. The artists for 2027 have not yet been released, but we are absolutely sure it will be a star-studded show.
Rondaståk is known for powerful artist experiences and a unique atmosphere, with an audience ranging from 20 to 70 years old, and the mountains are as important a part of the experience as the music.
Choose between day passes or festival passes for the entire weekend.
Can we help you with planning?
A trip to Gålå for one of the summer festivals is a great opportunity to explore more of both our mountain areas and our region. In the heart of Norway’s most beautiful nature, you can choose from many great activities, experiences, and exciting cultural events.
Several national parks are an hour’s drive away, including Langsua, Rondane, Dovre, and Jotunheimen. An hour south lies Lillehammer, and on the way, you’ll find Fron Badeland, Lilleputthammer, and Hunderfossen Adventure Park.
We are happy to help you plan your visit for an optimal festival + mountain holiday.
