Do you want to learn river kayaking and experience the wild nature of northern Norway? Then the half-year course X-SPORT is for you.

This is the line for you who need a little more action than average. With one of Northern Norway's best starting points for nature experiences, the opportunities are lined up for us.

Our goal is for you to have challenges and experiences during the year, and that you can grow as a person. The content of the line is adapted to your individual level, and the most important thing is that you are motivated. Then together we can create good memories, break boundaries, invent things together and enjoy the northern Norwegian nature to the fullest.

Mosjøen is located in the middle between world-class rivers and sea kayaking areas. With over 30,000 islands, islets and reefs, it is no wonder that the Helgeland coast is constantly mentioned as one of the world's most beautiful paddle pearls. In addition, world-famous paddle rivers flow out right next to the school, and we collaborate with River North in the neighboring municipality of Grane. In your free time you can borrow the school's new sea kayaks and go on your own trips on the weekends

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.
