Madeira utfylle året på X-Sport til å bli perfekt. Øygruppen i Portugal ligger utenfor kysten av Afrika og er omringen av spektakulær natur og et subtropisk havklima. Her får vi utfordret oss på heftige stier med sykler, surfet på klare perfekte bølger og utforsket øygruppen gjennom aktivitetene vi velger å foreta oss. Med sine dramatiske fjell, frodige daler og storslåtte kystlinjer byr øya på et variert landskap som inspirerer til utendørs aktiviteter. I tillegg til det fantastiske klimaet, tilbyr Madeira også rike kulturopplevelser, hvor klassen kan lære om lokal tradisjon og historie. Med et perfekt samspill mellom eventyr og læring, er Madeira den ideelle destinasjonen for å skape minner for livet!

Towards the end of the school year, we take you on an adventure trip to The coast of Helgeland, also called the world's most beautiful archipelago. You can't have been in Helgeland for so long without getting this! We aim for several attractions on the trip, hopefully to end up at Træna. Træna is an island municipality 33 nautical miles off the coast of Helgeland. There has been settlement here ever since the Stone Age, 9,000 years ago. This wonderful island municipality that is flourishing like never before. You may have heard of Trænafestivalen?

On 15.2 km² you will meet the people of the sea. They count 453 people, and have an entrepreneurial mentality that you have never seen. You will have the opportunity to have a milkshake at Aloha café, drink Helgeland's best cappuccino at Træna Kaffekollektiv and eat a delicious dinner at Havfolkets hus. You will have the opportunity to sing together in Kirkehelleren, walk up to the NATO station at Gompen or walk the love path around the mountains at Sanna. If you want to go fishing or sit in the sauna at the boathouse, this is also an option. Or perhaps you would like to visit the Petter Dass chapel, which was decorated by the artist Karl Erik Harr? It's just a lot to look forward to!

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.
