Inspiration for your trip

Inspiration for a trip with Game-On!

Even though Game-On specializes in AIRSOFT, airguns, and paintball, we're now quite good at outdoor activities too! In Norway, we have some of the world's most beautiful nature, so for everyone who can, I really recommend taking the time to go outside! Especially now in the spring months when trees and bushes are blooming and the sun is peeking out. I always make sure to go outside whenever the weather allows it. This time, the Sunday trip went to Storaberget in Rogaland. Not the longest trip, but an incredibly nice one with varied terrain and a bit of history with cultural monuments along the way.

The hiking gear had to be tested, so off we went! The most important things to bring are food and drink! So, I got out some hiking food, a backpack in the form of what we nicely call a “Drinking vessel with straps”. The one I had holds 3L and fits well on the back.

Tips for planning your next trip

If you join The Norwegian Trekking Association, you can sign up for group hikes and activities. In addition, they have many tourist cabins where you can stay quite cheaply! Not sure where to go hiking? There are lots of great tips ut.no. I've also just started using an app called AllTrails, which is completely free, but I recommend the Pro version. Then you can download maps so you have them on your phone in case you lose coverage. It also alerts you if you go off the trail/go wrong, you can print maps and add friends.Awesome app if you ask me! If you just want something as simple as a map/GPS when you're going on a trip, I recommend Topo GPS.
