Experience Southern Norway

Southern Norway is a fantastic region offering many great experiences!

We're very excited to show you our beautiful Southern Norway. The folk high school is perfectly situated amidst the stunning nature here in the south. It's a short distance to both the beautiful coastline with archipelagos, islets, and beaches, and to the adventurous inland nature with forests, moors, rivers, and lakes.

The school naturally takes advantage of these opportunities.

Additionally, the school is located in the center of the municipality and has easy access to all necessary services.

There are many reasons to want to experience Southern Norway

  • Fantastic experiences in the idyllic archipelago.
  • Rocky shores, beaches, swimming, boating, fishing, crabs, bonfires, etc.
  • Charming Southern towns with white wooden houses and narrow streets.
  • The towns of Lillesand, Grimstad, Kristiansand, and Arendal are all within a 15 - 40 minute drive.
  • Tranquil inland nature with rivers, lakes, forests, and beautiful viewpoints.

The entire school gets to know Southern Norway

  • Overnight stays on islands in the archipelago.
  • Swimming trips to both lakes and rivers.
  • Forest hikes in beautiful autumn colors to a peak with a view of the sea.
  • Nighttime forest hikes with campfires.
  • Idyllic short trips in the immediate vicinity of the school.
  • We also go on atrip with the whole school to Denmark! - which we consider to be part of Southern Norway without stretching the boundaries too far... ;)

In addition to the whole school experiencing Southern Norway together, the courses also take advantage of the opportunities that the region offers to create good teaching programs.
