Discover the Norwegian fjords and mountains
Early in the autumn, we take the students on a trip to get to know the region a bit. There are many great places to visit nearby.
The West Norwegian Fjords are among the most dramatic and spectacular landscapes in the country. We travel around Vestlandet to experience the beautiful fjord landscape, world famous hikes, dramatic waterfalls, and breathtaking scenery.
In autumn we stay in a cabin in Aurland, in the fjord landscape of Western Norway. The trip is a first meeting with Norwegian nature and cultural history, and a chance to get to know your class early in the year.
You use Norwegian at meals, during activities and in conversations. Before the trip we plan meals and activities together, and afterwards we evaluate it together.
Early september is perfect for hiking in Norway. Hiking is more than reaching a final destination. If you manage to stay present and take in the beauty of nature along the way – the sights, smells and small details – you will experience the essence of what we call friluftsliv. Then you will also understand why hiking is tightly connected to kos (cosiness)– the unique Norwegian word for having a good time.
The trip is mandatory and included in the price, with travel insurance.
