    The program with altitude. Sogndal is an Eldorado for climbing and for climbers. Field trip to the Alps and the Mediterranean.

    Local crags are 10 minutes away, with over 500 climbing routes. Alpine summits (and skiing facilities) are only a 10 minute drive away. 

    During the fall semester, we start with the basics of climbing. You will learn the thorough skills demanded for climbing: from belaying, top-roping to classic lead climbing. We will climb multi-pitch routes. You will learn to boulder, and develop your climbing technique, as well as learning how to rescue someone in the event of an accident. 
    If the weather is moody, we have a large indoor climbing wall and bouldering walls to practice on, and you can use these facilities as much as you wish in your spare time.

    We will travel through several countries, allowing us to experience beautiful surroundings and learn more about climbing in unique locations.

    Possible destinations include Switzerland, France, and Italy, where we will climb on different types of rock and challenge ourselves on varied climbing routes.

    We will travel by boat, train, and car—an eco-friendly way to explore Europe. This allows us to stop at exciting cities and places along the way, giving us the chance to experience the local culture authentically.

    Every year we have a limited number of foreign students. Our teaching program is practically oriented, we do not have a bespoke language learning program for foreign students. However, there are students from abroad almost every year; primarily from the US, the UK, and other European countries.
    This means that for the individual student, most of the language learning takes place interacting with the Norwegian students and the teachers. If you actively work on learning Norwegian from the beginning, the challenges of language barriers will not stop you from full participation in the school program.
