Introducing Otta

Set deep in Gudbrandsdalen, Otta occupies a strategic position at the confluence of the Otta and Lågen Rivers. Despite this promising location, it’s not the region’s prettiest town, although, to be fair, we were last there on a rainy Sunday and Monday when the town was not at its best. Otta’s main attraction is as the gateway to Rondane National Park.
