Telemarkskanalen facilitates and tailors your experiences in Telemark

Telemarkskanalen booking does everything they can to customize your travel experience.
The team, led by Arianne, tested their own travel products and were our guests at Straand Hotel for a weekend in fantastic fall weather.
They were even happy with their own products!
On request, this team builds up your trip with the very best tourism components we have to offer in Telemark.
Telemark booking can guarantee that your trip will be packed with the very best experiences if you want that little bit extra.
Imagine a canal trip on the Telemark Canal with the historic ships, Henrik Ibsen or Victoria with a delicious lunch and majestic nature experiences.
The fascinating locks on the way up or down the Telemark Canal give a very special impression.
It’s impressive to see how the waterways functioned as main arteries in the old days.
Arianne and the team also tested the hotel’s facilities, where they were served good food and drink.
They were particularly impressed by the rhubarb juice from Galleri og gardsbutikk Sanden and how much Sølvsmedtunet with Astrid Søftestad has to offer, the forge is the closest neighbor to the hotel.
They were also given a nice tour of MS Fram, the vintage boat that sails on Nisser and Vråvatn from Straand pier.
The boat from 1909 represents a completely unique experience for those who want a nice lock cruise based on the pier below the hotel.
Thank you for your visit and welcome back.
We look forward to a great fall season and new opportunities in 2025 together with the Telemark Canal.
