You could get off the route 7 at Dyranut and drive to tinnhylen. From there it is 13km in flat terrain on good paths to Sandhaug DnT hut. Beautiful place dead center in i Hardangervidda.

Or you can just stay at Dyranut or tinnhylen (trondsbu hut) and do short walks in the area.

If short walks are your thing i would seriously consider the train from Bergen or Oslo to Finse and stay at the Finse hut 10 minutes from the train station. Beautiful area and often the starting point for hikers crossing the plateau. Lots of possibilities for short or long walks. Close to the Hardangerjøkulen glacier.

In reply to Arnie slater. The terrain isn't exactly easy but there are options. I would suggest taking a boat over the lake Mosvatn, staying in the hut Mogen and taking trips from there: https://en.mapy.cz/s/begapalube Or more demanding would be hiking up this beautiful valley to Hadlaskard (with overnight in the Hedlo hut in the middle): https://en.mapy.cz/s/kekudogeke

This is where my great great grandparents came from. I have always wanted to visit. However, I am disabled…hiking is not impossible…but not easy for me. I have Cerebral Palsy. Are there places in Hardangervidda that I could access? Takk.

I’ve been on Hardangervidda a few times. One time when I went with some Norwegian friends we caught a boat at a place(I forget the name) where we were taken into Hardangervidda and stayed overnight at a Tourist hytte, and then walked across the Vidda for two days, I think (maybe three, it was a few years ago) until we came to Skinnabu, where we had left three cars, and drove home (Flekkeroy and Kristiansand). I really enjoyed the times I spent on Hardangervidda.

When I did a tour in the Hardangervidda we scrambled up Harteigen which is a volcanic plug that can be seen from miles away. It is an amazing area and so vast. It is difficult to envisaged its vastness until you are there.
