Lookout tower Gudbrandsdalslågen
Start at the Cirkle-K station at Strandtorget, and follow the hiking route through the pedestrian tunnel and bridge over the Mesna River. The hiking route continues north with Lågen on the left hand side and football loops on the right. Mosodden is a popular place for a quick bath when the temperature allows. There is also an information board that tells about the bird sanctuary, and we take the time to study the bird life before we move on. At the new birdwatching tower, there is an electronic hiking destination for those of you who use the Check OUT app.

Lågendeltaet Nature Reserve is a nature reserve in Lillehammer municipality in Oppland, Norway. The reserve was established in 1990 to "preserve an important and special wetland area in its natural state with vegetation and wildlife, and to protect a particularly rich and interesting bird life.
The Lågen delta is one of Norway's largest inland deltas, and the reserve stretches from the municipal border with Øyer in the north to about two kilometers south of the Vingnes Bridge. In addition to the river and the water, the area also includes all islands and some beach areas, but except for a few bays near Vingnes and the town. The reserve is also connected to the Lågen delta animal conservation area, which includes the cultivated land on the west bank along Jørstadmoen.
The Lågen delta has also been an important area for traditional fishing for vendace in the autumn, when it goes up into the river Lågen to spawn. This has long been the country's largest inland fishery,[2] but has gradually lost importance.
The area is very important as a resting and grazing area for many bird species. In the spring and summer of 2015, 12 species of ducks were observed, including the common duck, which is on the Norwegian Red List as "endangered"
Part of Lågen from Øyer to south of Lillehammer. One of Norway's largest inland deltas. Large and varied with shallow water area, islands, canals, salt meadows, swamps and cultivated land. National conservation value. Very important migratory site for birds. Important link in the inner migration route for Eastern Norway. Also important wintering area and nesting area. Very large species richness. Distinctive natural and cultural landscape with great landscape aesthetic value. Complex vegetation. Several plant species and vegetation types are rare on a national basis, including floodplains.
