Thanks hardangervidda national park for this wonderful time!” -Gigess from New Zealand, April 2017 “We visited the Hardangervidda National Park Center on a rainy day in late September and had the most wonderful experience. We received personal attention from the staff, including introductions to the exhibits (the interactive exhibition focusing on reindeer was especially easy to follow and had something for everyone from children to scientists). The lunch we had was also excellent, from the homemade soup to the fresh waffles with toppings. By the end of our 4-hour visit we were fully satisfied that the trip was worthwhile. Not to be missed if you are in the area.” -“MJT_05408”, from Vermont, 29.

  • Monitoring Anthropogenic Activity in the Hardangervidda Wild Reindeer Range Possible Applications of Crowdsourced Strava-Data in Remote Settings
    Faculty of Biosciences, Fisheries and Economics. Department of Arctic and Marine Biology. Monitoring anthropogenic activity in the Hardangervidda wild reindeer range Possible applications of crowdsourced Strava-data in remote settings Vilde Grøthe Holtmoen Master’s thesis in Biology, BIO-3950, May 2021 Preface This master thesis (60ECTS) was written as the final thesis of the study-program Masters in Biology at University of Tromsø (UiT), faculty of Biosciences, Fisheries and Economics, department of Arctic and Marine Biology. My supervisors has been Audun Stien (UiT) and Vegard Gundersen (NINA, dep. Lillehammer). Maps showing habitat suitability for wild reindeer on Hardangervidda in summer used in this thesis, was created by Manuela Panzacchi and Bram Van Moorter for NINA’s project Renewable Reindeer (RenewableReindeer (nina.no)) and will be published in an upcoming report (Tema-rapport) for NINA in 2021 (Panzacchi et.al., 2021, in press). Methods, analyses and results are previously published in Panzacchi et.al., 2015a. NINA had the main idea for this thesis and has contributed with the material for my analyses such as raw data from automatic counters, Strava-data and GPS-data from GPS-collared wild reindeer. 2 Abstract Seen in light of the increasing interest of nature-based tourism and recreational outdoor activities in Norway the last decades (Reimers, Eftestøl & Colman, 2003; Haukeland, Grue & Veisten, 2010), spatiotemporal information on human activity in remote areas and knowledge about how this activity may affect wildlife and nature is a crucial part of a knowledge-based management (Gundersen et.al., 2011, p.14; Gundersen, Strand & Punsvik, 2016, p.166). Hardangervidda is the largest national park in mainland Norway and is also home to the largest population of wild mountain reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus), a specie of international responsibility in management and conservation and recently added to the Norwegian red list (Kjørstad et.al., 2017, p.26; Artsdatabanken, 2021).

  • Effect of Latitude and Mountain Height on the Timberline (Betula Pubescens Ssp
    Effect of latitude and mountain height on the timberline (Betula pubescens ssp. czerpanovii) elevation along the central Scandinavian mountain range ARVID ODLAND Odland, Arvid (2015). Effect of latitude and mountain height on the timberline (Betula pubescens ssp. czerpanovii) elevation along the central Scandinavian mountain range. Fennia 193: 2, 260–270. ISSN 1798-5617. Previously published isoline maps of Fennoscandian timberlines show that their highest elevations lie in the high mountain areas in central south Norway and from there the limits decrease in all directions. These maps are assumed to show differences in “climatic forest limits”, but the isoline patterns indicate that fac- tors other than climate may be decisive in most of the areas. Possibly the effects of ‘massenerhebung’ and the “summit syndrome” may locally have major effects on the timberline elevation. The main aim of the present study is to quantify the effect of latitude and mountain height on the regional variation of mountain birch timberline elevation. The study is a statistical analysis of previous pub- lished data on the timberline elevation and nearby mountain height. Selection of the study sites has been stratified to the Scandinavian mountain range (the Scandes) from 58 to 71o N where the timberlines reach their highest elevations. The data indicates that only the high mountain massifs in S Norway and N Swe- den are sufficiently high to allow birch forests to reach their potential elevations. Stepwise regression shows that latitude explains 70.9% while both latitude and mountain explain together 89.0% of the timberline variation. Where the moun- tains are low (approximately 1000 m higher than the measured local timber- lines) effects of the summit syndrome will lower the timberline elevation sub- stantially and climatically determined timberlines will probably not have been reached.

The area is important as the home of the largest wild reindeer herds in Europe and the largest sub- populations of many species of birds that are comparatively rare in southern Norway. The plateau has a large diversity of plants in the boun- dary area between western and eastern species (coastal and inland species). The thousands of lakes make the plateau an eldorado for hikers with tents and fishing rods. Evidence of how people have utilised the natural resources is prominent on Hardangervidda in the form of paths, tracks, shelters and transhumance summer dairy farms.

  • Block Fields in Southern Norway: Significance for the Late Weichselian Ice Sheet
    Block fields in southern Norway: Significance for the Late Weichselian ice sheet ATLE NESJE, SVEIN OLAF DAHL, EINAR ANDA & NORALF RYE Nesje, A., Dahl, S. 0., Anda, E. & Rye, N.: Block fields in southern Norway: Significance for the Late Weichselian ice sheet. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 68, pp. 149-169. Oslo 1988. ISSN 0029-196X. The geographical and altitudinal distribution of block fields and trimlines in southern Norway are discussed in relation to the vertical extent of the continental ice sheet during the Late Weichselian glacial maximum. Inferred from these considenitions and formerly presented ice-sheet phases for the last glaciation in southern Norway, a new model on the Late Weichselian ice sheet is presented. This mod el indicates a low-gradient, poly-centred ice sheet during maximum glaciation with the ice divide zone located eiose to the present main watershed. During the deglaciation, the margin of the ice sheet retreated to the coast and fjord areas of western Norway. This induced a backward lowering of the iee-sheet surface, and the culmination zones in areas with low pass-points between eastern and western parts of southem Norway thus migrated E/SE ofthe present main watershed. During maximum glaciation the are as of greatest relative ice thickness were located to the central lowland areas of eastern Norway, to the Trøndelag region, and along the deeper fjords of western Norway.

From Summer of 2009 and 5 years on, 10 areas in Norway have been selected to work locally to stimulate initiatives to enchance the nature heritage experiences for tourists and locals. ”Vidda Vinn” means that the A map of the areas where the 10 mountain plateau should be a stimulation projects will take place. winner. The tourists’ use of Norwegian National Parks and protected areas has been restrictive Until the White Paper ”Fjellteksten” came in 2003 most management plans of National Parks in Norway told that ”commercial activities” were not allowed in the Parks ! But after 2003 ”the number of and acrage of National Parks har risen”. This meant that the Government had to change strategies in favour of creating ”local value- adding” – if not the would the local resistance to further expansion be large. At the opening of new National Park have the national politicians claimed that ”this National Park is a gift to the local tourism trade”. Some researchers, including the authors, have problems with these statements and thus tried to change existing politics towards a more mainstream way of managing a park.

  • Vurdering Av Dagens Forvaltingsmodell for Hardangervidda Nasjonalpark Og Framlegg Til Ny Modell
    Fylkesmennene i Hordaland, Buskerud og Telemark Vurdering av dagens forvaltingsmodell for Hardangervidda nasjonalpark og framlegg til ny modell Ansvarlig institusjon: Rapport nr: MVA-rapport 2018-03 Fylkesmannen i Hordaland, miljøvern- og klimaavdelinga Tittel: ISBN: Vurdering av dagens forvaltingsmodell for Hardangervidda nasjonalpark og framlegg til ny modell. 978-82-8060-112-4 Forfattarar: Dato: Stein Byrkjeland, Kjell Kvingedal og Øistein Aasland 25.9.2018 Samandrag: Hardangervidda nasjonalpark er i dag den einaste norske nasjonalparken som ikkje er forvalta av eit nasjonalparkstyre. Bakgrunnen er at 4 av dei 9 vertskommunane her valde å takke nei då tilbodet om å gå inn i denne ordninga kom frå Miljøverndepartementet i desember 2009. Hardangervidda nasjonalpark vert i staden forvalta av tre fylkesvise tilsynsutval og tre fylkesmenn. Ordførarutvalet for Hardangervidda oppmoda i 2015 fylkesmennene om å evaluere den eksisterande ordninga. Denne rapporten presenterer resultata frå denne evalueringa. Fylkesmennene har også fått i oppdrag av Klima- og miljødepartementet om å vurdere om det er grunnlag for å gå over til same forvaltingsmodell som andre norske nasjonalparkar no (seinare omtalt som standard forvaltingsmodell). Evalueringa konkluderer med at dagens forvaltingsmodell fungerer, dersom ein utelukkande vurderer korleis søknadar om dispensasjon frå verneforskrifta vert handterte. Arbeidsdelinga mellom tilsynsutval og fylkesmenn fungerer også bra sjølv om regimet kan vere vanskeleg å få oversyn over for utanforståande, samhandlinga er god og forvaltingsinstansane utfyller kvarandre. Det er visse regionale skilnader i praktiseringa av regelverket, men desse er i stor grad forårsaka av ulik historisk bruk og eigedomsstruktur. Det er like fullt eit faktum at forvaltinga av denne nasjonalparken er prega av frag- mentering og stor mangel på kapasitet, som igjen har si årsak i avgrensa økonomiske ressursar.

Vedtaket er fatta med heimel i § 4.5.1d) ”Ferdsle m.m.” i forskrift om vern for Hardangervidda nasjonalpark og vurdert etter naturmangfaldlova. Det er sett vilkår til løyvet. Vi viser til e-post frå Svein Arne Tyssebotn sendt til Tilsynsutvalet den 22. april 2021. Denne vart videre sendt Statsforvaltaren den 25. april. 2021, der Tilsynsutvalet og kom med ei tilråding i saka. Saka Svein Arne Tyssebotn er bestyrar på Sandhaug turisthytte på Hardangervidda. Tyssebotn ynskjer no å legge til rette for at dei gjestene som ynskjer det skal kunne ri inn til Sandhaug turisthytte. Dei har tenkt å nytte inntil 10 hestar pr. tur, nokre ridehestar og nokre kløvhestar. Dei ynskjer å starte turane frå Tinnhølen, og ri via turiststien inn til Sandhaug, og via traktorslepa på returen. Dette for å få litt variert tur. Dei ser for seg at dette tilbodet kan væra positivt for både unge og eldre gjester på Sandhaug turisthytte. Dei ynskjer å starta med riding den 25 juni (når Turisthytta opnar for sumarsesongen) og til den 30 august. Statsforvaltaren sin vurdering Den omsøkte hesteridinga er å rekne som organisert ferdsle, og må difor handsamast etter § 4.5.1d) ”Ferdsle

Kommunen har lange tradisjoner i å bruke Hardangervidda som ressurs både næringsmessig og friluftsmessig. Vi har levende tradisjoner og et godt næringsgrunnlag og store muligheter til å skape ekte opplevelser basert på dette. Som utmarkskommune og Nasjonalparkkommune, har vi et lite utnyttet potensiale i økt verdiskaping i og rundt Hardangervidda Nasjonalpark, spesielt gjennom formidling og opplevelser knyttet til dagens bruk og historien. Rollag kommune bruker også Nore og Uvdal som innfallsport til Hardangervidda. Nore og Uvdal har stor kompetanse på naturforvaltning og særlig villreinforvaltning. De viktigste forvaltningsorgana for villreinen på Hardangervidda er plassert her; Hardangervidda Villreinutvalg og Villreinnemda for Hardangervidda. Likeledes er tilsynsutvalget for Buskerud og 2 stillinger i Statens Naturoppsyn plassert i kommunen. Alle disse funksjonene er samlokalisert med den kommunale jord, skog og utmarksforvaltningen i Numedal Utmarkssenter på Rødberg. Nore og Uvdal er en kommune i utkanten av Buskerud fylke. Nore og Uvdal er Buskeruds største kommune og er en av 33 nasjonalparkkommuner i Norge. Kommunen har 2530 innbyggere. Innbyggertallet har holdt seg stabilt siste 10 år. Nore og Uvdal er en av Norges største fritidsboligkommuner med ca 4000 hytter. Aktiviteten omkring fritidsboligene og bruken av dem er således en svært viktig målgruppe for handels, servicenæringen og øvrig næringsliv. Kommunens beliggenhet gjør at kommunen i stor grad er eget bo- og arbeidsmarked. En stor andel av sysselsettingen finner vi i helse- og sosialtjenester, bygg- og anlegg, undervisning og handel. Landbruk har også relativt stor andel av sysselsettingen i kommunen. Reiselivsnæringen er liten sett i forhold til det store antallet hytter som finnes i kommunen.
