Memurubu Tourist Lodge
Memurubu Tourist Lodge is idyllic located under Besseggen next to Gjende. Memurubu is located between Gjendesheim and Gjendebu, with Besseggen and Bukkelægeret on each side.
Memurubu is by origin a old farm that has been in use for over 100 years, but the farming operation is retired by now. Today, Memurubu is a modern tourist lodge with good comfort, local food and renewable electricity from its own hydropower plant.
We have about 150 beds divided into rooms of different sizes – many of them with private bathroom and toilet. In addition, there is also a nice campsite for those who wish to stay in a tent.
Memurubu is a great base for experiencing some of the most magnificent hikes in Jotunheimen.
Food
In the mountain restaurant we serve breakfast and a three-course dinner. Breakfast is usually served from 07.30 to 09.00. If we have many guests, breakfast can start earlier. The breakfast buffet consists of food that prepares you for a good day in the mountains, for example homemade wholemeal bread, oatmeal and a good selection of cheeses, jams, fish and cold meats.
Pack a solid lunch for the trip, and fill the thermos with hot water, tea or coffee. A 3-course dinner is usually served at 19.00 On the busiest summer days we have two table settings – the first at 18.00 and the second at 20.00. In our mountain cafe, we offer coffee, cinnamon buns, snacks, chocolate and drinks.
