NEWS, TRENDS AND INSPIRATION Nordic Life ON TOP OF THE WORLD The newest addition to the Hamaren Activity Park in Fyresdal, Norway, opened in June and is a beautiful, 1-kilometer (0.62-mile) forest walk for visitors to venture all the way to the summit of Klokkarhamaren. The fully wooden boardwalk structure is designed to overcome the challenging terrain while respecting the existing biotops and nature. The path leads to a 50-meter (164-foot) diameter circular viewpoint situated at the top of the hill, offering panoramic views of Fyresvatn lake. The treetop walkway was designed by Denmark's leading architectural firm, EFFEKT, and is intended to give everyone the opportunity to go on a mountain hike in Fyresdal, regardless of their physical abilities. @sonsofnorway Jul/Aug 2023 7 PHOTO: RASMUS HJORTSHØJ/COURTESY EFFEKT ARCHITECTS
