Experience the excitement with Outdoor life Fjord and Sea! Join us for freediving, sailing, coastal outdoor activities and adventures in Norway's wonderful landscape. Embrace the elements!

Fjord - hunting and fishing - top-class food

Nordvestlandet Folk High School is located right by the sea - it's only a 3-minute walk to the shore. The sea, the shore, islets and reefs - that's our classroom! We will free dive, fish, paddle, row, sail and surf on waves. Overnight stays outside with fantastic starry skies right above us. Cooking with ingredients from the ocean pantry - scallops, lobster, crayfish and fish are luxury food! Norwegian seafood is known throughout the world as healthy and tasty food - and we have good access to what lives in the sea.

Sea - travel less, experience more!

As a student at Nordvestlandet Folk High School, you will find that we are close to world-class nature. Within an hour and a half of traveling, we reach famous places such as Atlanterhavsvegen, Hustadvika, Smøla, Tustna and Hitra. Here you'll find fresh air, the sound of seagulls, fish in the sea and wind in your hair. The conditions are ideal for learning about different ways of fishing - whether it's with a harpoon when free diving, from the shore with a fishing rod or with nets and pots from a boat.

Learning and experiences - hand in hand

Perhaps you've already got a taste for the outdoors and you've tried snorkeling and fishing? Or maybe you've been a real "landlubber" with both feet on the ground until now. Either way, you'll have every opportunity to learn a lot on the outdoor life fjord and sea course.

International student at Nordvestlandet folkehøgskole!

As an international student at Nordvestlandet folkehøgskole you will attend to the "International course". Here you will learn the Norwegian language.

You will combine this with one of our nine "major subjects" whithin sports, outdoor life and arts. This way you will experience one year at a traditional Norwegian folk high school while learning the Norwegian language at the same time. The school has 100 students and about 10 of these are foreign students with no knowledge of the Norwegian language. These students constitute the international course.

We have much experience in hosting internationals, and strive to give you the best information in how to apply and to get here.

Nordvestlandet folkehøgskole is located in the county Møre og Romsdal which is famous for its beautiful nature and many fjords. Among them the Geiranger fjord which is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
