Taste the traditional food. Meet locals. Enjoy harvesting.
A comfortable bus will take you from the port to a beautiful landscape surrounded by mountains and fjords. After about 1 hour drive, you will reach a small, authentic Norwegian village that is off the beaten path and a real treasure. The village of Sandane offers you a real experience of the Norwegian countryside.
Our first stop is at Nordfjord Folkemuseum where you will have a guided tour in the open-air-museum and will visit the newest exhibition, Attåt. Where the open-air museum shows the pre-industrial farming community and life on the farm, this exhibition will focus on various industries that we have had here in Nordfjord.
This tour will let you discover how Nordfjord building traditions have developed in the last 500 years. By visiting the historical buildings in our open-air museum, you can get a feel for the evolution from small timber dwellings to modern multi-story buildings with covered chimneys.
Our next stop for today is the historic Gloppen Hotel whose traditions go back to 1866. Here you will start tasting the Nordfjord in the Stoven Restaurant at the Hotel. You will taste "Gloppen brew" beer, produced by Kinn brewery according to the recipe of Gloppen Hotel and some snacks from local producers, most of them less than 3 to 10 km away from the hotel.
After being a guest at the Gloppen hotel, you will understand that there is something very special about local food from the Nordfjord - the food is from the village, fresh, clean and without additives.
Our last stop is at Påldtun Fruit Farm. The host of the farm will tell you the history of the farm “Before and now” and ensure you have a magical farm experience! You will have a chance to pick raspberries yourself and taste the products of the farm: lemonade juice, fruit juice and a local "pancake" called Svele that is very good together with brown cheese, jam and jelly.
