A Personal Warm Welcome to Gartlandsborg River Lodge
It is my pleasure to welcome you to Gartlandsborg River Lodge. Whether you come for the salmon fishing or simply to enjoy the magnificent surroundings in good company, I hope your stay will be truly unforgettable.
Always a Dream
For many years, I dreamed of owning a salmon fishing lodge with both exceptional quality and genuine soul. Gartlandsborg was always that dream—a remarkable place filled with history, character and opportunity.
It’s All Happening
On 25 March 2023, the former owner called and offered me the opportunity to purchase Gartlandsborg. The agreement was signed, and on 15 May, I proudly became the fifth owner of this historic lodge. It is with great joy and humility that I take on the responsibility of preserving and developing Gartlandsborg. Above all, I want it to be a place where everyone feels genuinely welcome—a place where you can feel like a Lady or Lord for a day.
My Dream for the Future
My hope is that the atmosphere, experiences, companionship and hospitality will leave you with one thought: “I would love to return.” Warm Regards – Anders
The River Namsen has long ranked among Norway’s finest salmon rivers. Gartlandsborg offers approximately 3.5 kilometres of varied fishing along the renowned Gartland–Rosset beat. Unlike many beats farther downstream, the fishing here remains productive at virtually all water levels.
Salmon fishing is about the complete experience—the powerful take, the excitement of the fight, the frustration of losing a big fish and the beauty of the surrounding nature. Releasing a salmon after a memorable fight is simply part of protecting the future of the river.
