Nicely situated cabin a few meters off the path... Seating inside and outside the cabin... enough space to sleep in it if necessary.

You don't have to book it. You can book it for 50 kr, true, to be entitled to have a place. The problem is just, if other people have taken it without checking the availability. (most people don't). It's difficult for most people to ask strangers to leave it because you have paid for it.
