These two cottages sit at a crossroads of several trails on the southeast slope of the fjeld Gåsen,
and would probably not have been erected in this specific location otherwise.
But, now that they are, one must admit that the place is well worth a visit on its own merits,
with its panorama view of both the Helags and Sylarna massifs.
Gåsen proper is a superb observation point, and is very easily climbed.
NOTE: As of 2024 the cottages are permanently closed as part of a new land use agreement intended to lighten visitor pressure in the area.
