The formal Norwegian term for cottages is "hytte" or "fritidsbolig" (vacation house). In Norway cabins are often built near leisure activities such as hunting, fishing and outdoor life / outdoor sports, or in areas with particularly beautiful nature, such as in the woods, in the mountains or by the sea. In the most attractive areas, it has become increasingly common with regulated fields where the cabins are very close together, in so-called "cabin villages". Chained cabins and holiday apartments are also being built here, similar to a normal city.
