TOURS
Outdoor activities
Large cod on the hook, fluttering northern lights, puffins from the sea to the highest cliffs. That is how we want it. If you are fascinated by nature, you have everything you need to enjoy yourself at Friluftsliv Lofoten. We will be out and about a lot, exploring the Lofoten region, which is world-renowned for its versatile opportunities.
You will feel the joy of reaching the summit and seeing the loch below you. You will wake up in the tent on a sparkling autumn morning and hear that someone is already starting to boil some coffee. You will be amazed at the closeness of the elements when you sit in the sea kayak, and you will be contemplative by the silence of the forest around you after the fire has burned down and everyone is in their sleeping bags.
We take full advantage of the proximity to the sea, the coast, and the mountains throughout the year. Key words are untroubled travel, food from nature, knowledge of plants and animals, skills in boating, in the forest, and on the mountain. In our magnificent and pristine nature, we will learn to navigate safely in all conditions.
The teacher
Torbjørn Nilsen
I am a bubbly, happy father of young children with a penchant for cold and hard work, and I often spread my bad humor among the students. I think that interpersonal relationships are far more interesting than pure academic knowledge, which is why I like being with younger people with their life-affirming energy.
I have been an outdoor education teacher at the school for a whole man's age now, and it has given me broad experience in the field of outdoor education that I am happy to share with you.
I have a vocational education degree in sports and outdoor life from Bø in Telemark. In addition, I have completed various courses in the field of outdoor life. I look forward to getting to know you.
Information
On this page you will find everything you need when you arrive at the school, both for living in the hostel and for the lessons, as well as good tips for other cool things you might want to bring along.
Former students tell
All those good friends, the mountains bathed in evening sun, the cold sea spray, the feeling of standing on top and looking out, the water lapping at the sides of the kayak, sunsets and sunrises on the pier, cocoa and knitting by the fire when the darkness falls. Warm hugs, tough discussions, kind words and thought-provoking conversations.
This is the place. This is the whole package (and a little more).
It’s a lot about nature, but just as much about the people you share it with. There are so many places to meet and build good relationships – in line classes, in the homeroom, during electives, in the dormitories, or around the dinner table.
Since I moved here, I’ve found myself thinking more often than before that life can be wonderful.
