Establishment of temporary facilities for the summer season requires permission from the Governor. Temporary facilities are camps or structures that will be outside throughout the entire season, or large parts of it. Application deadline is 29 March 2026.

Published 3/19/2026

A permit is required for the establishment of a temporary facility regardless of the area according to the Camp Regulations §3.

The purpose of having a common deadline is to be able to make an overall assessment of the applications. The impact on the landscape, fauna, and other users of the area will be given great weight in the assessment.

Here you will find tips for the content of the application (PDF).

Applications must be sent to firmapost@sysselmesteren.no by 29 March 2026.
