Get started with HIDDEN
Just use the map in HIDDEN to find stories and attractions. Then click the map symbols to get a synopsis of information before you visit. Often the detailed information is hidden until you actually visit the location and then you discover the full story and further media.
Location data makes the experience interactive and tailored. The HIDDEN application brings a wealth of material and something extra for the whole family, no matter what type of adventure or journey you are on.
Experience Augmented Reality Content (AR)
At some places, you will be able to experience actual events through AR-technology, as seen recently in the very successful Pokémon Go application. “Expanded reality” means that digital information is added to actual images and audio from your surroundings, bringing stories to life. See trolls fighting, a sea serpent swimming in a lake, Edvard Munchs works in front of you, the historic sinking of the Blücher or the battle of Stiklestad.
HIDDEN includes a sample troll that shows you how AR works and provides an example of this exciting and new technology. Soon, HIDDEN’s platform will be filled with these experiences.
An easily accessible tool at your disposal
HIDDEN’s system for adding and editing contents is easy to use. Log in through a web browser and explore the many possibilities.
Do you wish to add an audio-guide which plays at a specific place? An illustration, a photograph, film or music? Or what about ancient texts or beautiful poetry?

HIDDEN and Telia invite you to the biggest collection of folklore stories gathered in one place. Do you have a good story or an ancient legend?
Have you heard stories of trolls, huldrer or underground creatures? Do you remember you’re your grandmother told you why the boulder on the field is split in two and moves every time the church bells ring? This is the type of stories we are looking for.
It’s a long time ago since Asbjørnsen and Moe collected and preserved folklore stories, and now is the time for a new effort from all of us to ensure that these amazing stories are available for everyone, using modern technology. All of the best contributions will be put into the HIDDEN application and will also be digitally stored for posterity at the Svalbard digital arschive as part of our communal cultural heritage.
(The time for the Svalbard-trip is currently uncertain because of the Corona crisis).

Torghatten –
In Northern Norway, a long time ago there was a troll named Hestmannen. He was in love with the beautiful sorcerer Lekamøya. She lived at Landego. One night, Hestmannen saw Lekamøya swimming in the sea at Landego. He had to have here!

The story of the cruel Bal
The legend of Bal is from approx. 400 years back in time when at Balsnes in Ballangen lived a Frenchman, yes, some say he was Danish who was called Bal. Bal reportedly had three large copper mines scattered inside of The Mountain World of Ofoten.

When the Trolls built Våler Church
Many people have wondered about the place choice made when Våler Church was built in the 12th century. It is supposed to be an old pagan cult place, located low in the terrain, down a river bend and on clay ground. In order for the church not to sink into the ground, it should therefore be laid on a raft of ospet timbers, which supposedly do not root in clay.
