Leira, Norway, also known as Leira I Valdres, is located in Nord-Aurdal, a rural municipality in the south of Norway. The village has a population of roughly nine hundred, and is named after the River Leira. The closest international airport with frequent flights to many destinations worldwide is in Oslo, the capital of Norway. In addition to that, the small Fagernes Airport is in the region, but it is mainly used for charter flights serving the numerous ski resorts in the area. If you rent a car, it is a three hours’ drive from Oslo to the northwest. Nord-Aural is a very rural area. The biggest treasure is the unspoilt nature, the forests, and the lakes. The municipality was established in the nineteenth century. The biggest mountain in the Leira region is Duptjernkampen, with a height of just over one thousand three hundred metres. Generally, the whole region is highly situated, and many places are above nine hundred metres.

Leira is very small. The supply of accommodations such as hostels in Leira, Norway, is very limited. You can find some more hotels in Fagernes, which is also located by the lake and only a five-minute drive. In Leira, you can book a hostel and a campsite, which are good options for backpackers compared to the pricey hotels in nearby Fagernes. Since the village is small, it is easy to get to your Leira, Norway hostel and to get around.

The area around Leira is perfect for some relaxation and outdoor activities. The nearby lake Strandefjorden covers a surface area of fourteen square kilometres. It offers good opportunities to hike, to take a swim (if you can handle the cold water), to go fishing, and to try out some canoeing. In winter, there are several excellent ski resorts in the region; among the most famous winter sport places is Lillehammer, the host of a Winter Olympic Games in the nineties. It is around one hundred twenty kilometres east of Leira. The five nearby ski resorts offer excellent snow conditions in winter.
