[[Femundsmarka National Park]] was founded in 1971 and is situated in the far northeastern corner of the municipality. The area is popular for its many lakes and attracts a lot of people for sport fishing every year. The same lakes are also perfect for paddling the canoe.

The second national park, [[Gutulia National Park]] is much smaller, but has a more vigorous complex of trees and bogs. It was founded in 1968 and the many large, but old pines dominates the area.
