During the autumn we go on a study trip to Lofoten. With its majestic nature and limitless hiking opportunities, it is a perfect destination that many people have on their bucket list.

You can try surfing in the most spectacular surroundings at Unstad/Flakstad, snorkling/ free diving and go on mountain hikes you will remember for a long time. Simply taking in the wonderful nature Lofoten has to offer is an experience in itself. This is a trip that offers some of the most unique places we have in the Norway, which everyone should get to experience.

Vefsn Folkehøgskole TOPPEN is an active and creative school, placed on the top of a hill on the outskirts of Mosjøen in the middle of Norway. But still far enough up north that the northern lights dance across the sky regularly during the winther.

We want you to experience COURAGE, MASTERY and OPPORTUNITIES when you are a student with us. In a safe community and with many new experiences, you have good opportunities for personal growth and lifelong learning. For us, professional quality and well-being for everyone is important.

To make the most of the year, we think it's important that you have a vibrant and varied environment around you. Here you can find urban and great nature, safety and excitement, humor and seriousness, professional quality and well-being, combined with committed teachers. Security and challenges, good social environment and professional development are equally important.

The school is well equipped in all classes and there is wifi throughout the school. In addition, we have several common areas like a fitness room, rooms to socialize, student kitchen ... yes, all we need to do well. Our accommodation kitchen is one of the best, and we are spoiled by skilled chefs and good food all year round.

Another thing we emphasize is to have employees who are not only proficient in their subject but mean something more for the students. With us you will find people who have energy and humor, and teachers who want to bring out the best in you. Our students should feel included and appreciated, and we are all concerned that our students should feel at home and have a good time.
