Brought my daughter here for an Easter Sunday. Asked if the priest could baptize her with the other children during the mass but apparently it wasn’t appropriate so I don’t know what they are doing here, but it’s not God’s work. It’s a nice museum but it’s run by a bunch of charlatans that do not understand anything about what the church should be. Stay away if you appreciate anything holy! There are plenty of other places to visit.

Rather plain looking Medieval church built since 14th century. I did not see inside , it was closed. There are many headstones in the surrounding cemetery. There is a monument for Russian prisoners of wars died during Nazi occupation. The church is on the water edge and it is serene and beautiful.

Very pretty church with a scenic walk (or quicker bus ride)!

Nice, quiet. Beautiful views. Easy walk during snowy day today.

A very peaceful Christian church, backed by the sea, with beautiful scenery, is the best place to travel and relax

Lovely church but as a non believer, I did not really want to waste time sitting through a service, whish was a mandatory part of out tour. Would have liked more information on history of the church and it's fortification, which is unusual for a church.

We visited today from the Hurtigruten boat with about 100 people. The priest led a short bilingual service for us. It was very special. Thank you.

Located in the Northern Lofoten town of Harstad , this historical center and the adjacent church and it’s cemetery are a very unique combination of Viking history and the World War II Prisoner of War camp for the Russian soldiers captured by the Nazi Germans occupying Norway . Also added bonus is one of the oldest Viking Churches in Norway .

Very dark inside so it's difficult to read the descriptions. However, outside was very interesting with a Viking lodge and some branch fencing. Only $17 US for seniors so it was OK.

Interesting exhibitions showing timeline of history in the region. Some signs etc only in Norwegian but a lot in English. Take a translator with you to read these texts. Some of the monitors were not working which was a pity. Admission price is a bit high (NOK190 for adults - seniors NOK170). The farm is interesting for kids but you do not see too much of great interest except perhaps for the stave church if you have not seen one before.

Quick bus ride from central bus station. The museum has very comprehensive displays of Harstad’s history from 500 through WWII. Good video about the medieval church that was built here and was one of the largest in the area (you may need to ask the staff to start it for you). There's a lot to see in the museum since it covers such a long period; nicely laid out with combination of objects, recreations of scenes, and excellent descriptive signage. Although the section about Harstad's WWII role revealed a little known (at least to most Americans) aspect of Norway's war experience, I learned a lot about the early, early development and then Harstad's role as a trading/fishing center. Very good museum. There’s a recreation of a medieval farm village next to the museum so I wandered around there - a stave church, sod house and rooster enclosure. Then I walked to the medieval church (5 minutes away), which unfortunately closed so I’m glad I watched the movie at the museum. The hours are usually 11 am - 2 pm, so you have to plan it carefully.

Very cool exhibits! Beautiful wooden church, living farm, amazing scenery.

It is a museum that tells the Trondenes church story in midle age until second world war. The caldeiron is the biggest found,

Interesting but very dark displays. The farmstead next door was beautiful.

The bathroom was not it had piss all over the toilet and the ground please fix it + when I orded it took me about 30 minutes to get my food, the walls are too old and service was slow but the rest was nice I recommend to add a fun long slide. 3 ⭐️

Grottebadet is placed in an underground cave, what makes it special and different than other water parks. There are different pools to choose between in Grottebadet. For example the racing pool (which also has a 1, 3 and 5 meter jump), the hot pool, or the normal big pool with a big slide and waves. If you are hungry you can also buy food in the small restaurant which is placed next to the big pool. The prices are a little bit high, but that is normal. It is a great place to visit with your family at any day of the week.

Old pool, mold on the walls. Persistent smell of chlorine. This place needs major repairs. I do not recommend.

It is a unique place for swimming, man made cave like. I just hope they allow people to bring their own food since the cafe is too expensive and kinda unhealthy.

Very nice water park, a good way to both relax and having fun with friends or family! Watchout though, the closing time is 20.00 but they will take you out around 19.30 to do the cleanings. The staff anyway is very polite and nice and the location in an underground cave is very impressive!! If you go there late you can pay only the evening ticket which is around 95 nok.

Fun, lovely and good service!

Very nice bathing place! Great!

Bucket List. Must Visit. You will learn Saami culture. Lovely Family who run this deer farm.

Fabulous experience learning about the Sami people and way of life. The reindeer are beautiful,so gentle that you can hand feed them . Highly recommended but wrap up warm

Great experience. Very easy to recommend.

A very good story about SAMI people trough the years, no matter what they will stay united, a reineer soup and walking with the reineers was perfect! THANKS

We had lots of fun at the farm and the owners are caring a lot about their reindeers. Our Guide told us many stories about the saami culture and sang beautiful traditional songs as well as a saami style happy birthday for a friend of me. Thanks for the great experience!

Super lovely and friendly owner. We came there quite early, and she offered for us to wait until the guided tour and feeding of the reindeers started, but we unfortunately couldn't wait as we also had a boat tour booked in Bleik. Reindeers look lovely though and there are two very cute dogs on the property. Don't make the same mistake as us and allow enough time to get the full experience there!!

A fascinating insight into the Saami way of life and culture. We enjoyed listening to the stories, eating home-made reindeer stew, and meeting these wonderful animals.

This is the best museum I’ve ever been to that’s based on a writer. If you haven’t ever read Hamsun, this will make you want to read Hamsun. The staff are also super friendly and incredibly willing to answer any questions you may have.

Way more interesting than I expected! Nice permanent display of the writers life, with an interesting concept of each floor representing a new stage in his developnent/condition. Top floors are getting weird and croocked!

Really nice place. Nice and friendly staff. The building itself is worth a visit and the exhibition is wonderful.

Great exhibition and the best cafe/bar in the area.

Lovely museum with architectural elements that builds a great fundament for telling the history of the great author Knutsford Hamsun

Amazing place, beautiful architecture, knowledgeable and friendly staff

Very loving and carefully crafted museum.

A large souvenir shop, with a café. Lots of different Norwegian products; T-shirts, caps, sweatshirts, children's clothes, etc. The outdoor terrain is amazing. There were trails in every direction where you could have gone hiking.

Like the place (visited in July), recommend to stop. Inside the center, there are a lot of Norwegian souvenirs 🫶🏼

The Arctic Circle Centre is an excellent place to stop during a long journey. Although the prices of the items are a little high, my Norwegian husband didn't find them so. The baguette with reindeer meat was something special, and the staff are exceptionally friendly.

Beautiful place very serene lot of nature to look at. It was my first time here and the centre has much nice things to look at and purchase too. Nice little cafe and tasty food too.

Such a nice place to stop! So many different souvenirs to look at. Great views at the hiking spots near the center. Clean bathrooms and a small cafe with food, desserts, and beverages. Workers are super friendly and helpful!

Great photo stop right on the highway. Lots of cute (albeit expensive) souvenirs. Walk around outside for the full experience.

The food and souvenirs are perfect. Many memorable items available especially the caps.

Very nice swimming pool, really warm, great facilities including the pool and aqua play. The toilets weren't clean enough. Although all the staff were very friendly, nice and helpful, one of the body guards was very silly and intrusive. She was a young lady, and she was looking at us all the time. Even when we are out of the pool. with sharp and ridiculous looking and unjustified. It was very ridiculous that made us leave and I think we will not come back again

Just going for swimmingpool. Loks Nice place at swimming area. Shower are ok. You need to bring your own soap for cleaning. I am used from Iceland that soap is in shower so everyone goes clean to swimmingpool. I was lucky someone offer me his own soap when I asked where soap should be. Not much people there on Sunday. Would recommend for families with children.

Great 25 meter pool, wide lanes, fantastic water quality. Staff very friendly and helpful.

One of the nicest indoor pools I have ever visited. And very friendly and helpful staff. The area is larger and it's easy to get lost. Despite arriving quite late, I was able to enjoy my swim laps. Tusen takk ✨

Really new and clean facility. Great fun! Very helpful staff. (No shower gel, shampoo, hairdryers in the ladies’ showers/ changing rooms but that might be a British thing!).

This was SUCH a neat pool to visit. The wave pool and “lazy river” my 5yo especially loved. Great for kids. A little pricey but worth it in my opinion FYI no phones allowed (they provide a locker at the front)

They are just running the area unprofessionally. No clear message to customer.

This is one of the best museum I ever visited. HUGE positive surprise! 100% recommend. Maker sure you have at least half a day because it is not small! Interesting even if you aren’t into aviation.

Waoo ! This place is a state of the art of Aviation museum. This is a must see. The preservation of the machine is incredible, the scenic impressive, very well documented. Well done for such great achievement 👏🏻👍🏻

The museum is amazing. I am an airline pilot myself and must say I was amazed, especially the military aviation section. The U-2 Dragon Lady, one of my all-time favorite was a huge surprise to me! There is really nothing to complain about. I did notice in the civil aviation section that the dates were a bit out of order in terms of following it chronologically (the dates were correct), and I also noticed a complete lack of mention of Santos Dumont, the first pilot to start and land a self-propelled aircraft. Be that as it may, I’d still rate it 100%

Great museum. So many planes (!), but also so much more. From early flights and myths and spectacles; to commercial and military... All fascinating. Give it plenty of time. 3-4 hours of wonder; a cafe; and great guides. A joy. Thank you.

Brilliant museum at a reasonable price would highly recommend, wasn’t expecting the size and variety of items particularly from ww2

Excellent museum. There’s a range of brilliant exhibits on military and civil aviation, and you can climb the control tower which gives a lovely view over Bodø. I spent 1/2 hours here but could’ve spent more. Costa 195 NOK for an adult and it’s worth it.

Visiting the Aviation Museum in Bodø became an unforgettable experience, filled with knowledge enrichment. The museum astonishes with its scale and diversity of exhibits. Walking through the spacious halls, you find yourself surrounded by a vast number of airplanes and aviation technology, each telling its own unique story. The museum displays aircraft from different eras, starting from the first aviation pioneers to modern military and civilian aircraft. The level of preservation of many exhibits is particularly impressive, allowing one to understand and appreciate the technical achievements of different times. The museum also offers unique opportunities for learning and entertainment, including simulated flights and educational programs. This makes it an ideal place for family leisure, where both children and adults can find something interesting and informative. The Aviation Museum in Bodø is undoubtedly a place worth visiting. It offers an extensive collection that amazes with its scale and diversity, and provides deep knowledge about the world of aviation. It's a place where history meets modernity, creating a unique and inspiring adventure for curious minds of all ages.

We had a very disappointing experience with the Svartisen Glacier trip organized by Meløy Adventure. We booked this trip a month in advance and were looking forward to a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Unfortunately, it turned into a frustrating and poorly managed ordeal. We arrived at the designated meeting point on time, only to find that there was no guide present. After contacting Meløy Adventure, we were told the guide would be at the harbor. Trusting this information, we purchased ferry tickets out of our own pocket (not included in the original booking) and waited at the harbor—still no guide. After multiple phone calls and further confusion, we were finally informed that no guide would be coming at all. In return, we were offered alternative activities like canoeing, e-bikes in Glomfjord, or an eagle safari. These suggestions felt more like a last-minute patch-up than a real alternative—especially since we had specifically come here to visit the glacier. The only thing we took away from this experience was disappointment. We sincerely hope to receive a full refund for the trip itself—though even that doesn’t include the added cost of ferry tickets we shouldn’t have had to buy. Overall, we cannot recommend this trip or company based on our experience.

We had the RIB ride to Rødøy. Except for the hike which was amazing, our guide was super friendly, added interesting facts along the way, and gave us extra tips for the rest of our trip. I highly recommend going on a trip to Rødøy with them!

Put together a super three-day adventure tour along the beautiful Helgeland coast. Safe navigation and super local knowledge meant that we had maximum use of the time, with little waiting. Great climbing on Rødøyløva, Gin tasting atMyken, gun shooting in Ørnes, trail cycling, Rib riding, and a fabulous climb on the Blackice (Svartisen). We also had a great overnight stay in Glomfjord, where we took sauna and swam in the sea with eagles around us. Recommends everyone to use Meløy Adventure (Øyvind), to plan your next adventure.

No show and terrible communication We had booked a glacier hike for two on Svartisen for Monday, August 4, with a scheduled meeting time at 9:15 AM. Unfortunately, the tour was canceled over the phone at 9:28 AM — after we had already boarded the ferry. We completely understand that weather conditions can lead to cancellations. However, the way this situation was handled was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. 1. We arrived at the ferry terminal in Holandsvika at 9:15 as agreed, but there was no guide present. At 9:28, while already on the ferry, we received a call from the tour company saying there might be issues due to rain and high water levels near the glacier. We were told to wait for an update in 30 minutes, as there was a chance the hike could be adjusted. Based on this, we stayed on the ferry. 2. We disembarked and walked towards the glacier. No follow-up call came after the promised 30 minutes, so we called them ourselves. We were asked whether it was windy by the glacier — only then did we realize that the guide wasn’t even at the glacier and that the tour was effectively not going to happen. We had to ask directly whether the tour was canceled to finally get a confirmation. 3. That afternoon, we tried calling several times to reschedule or request a refund, but no one picked up, and we never received a call back. My partner had to call from their phone to get a response. Canceling a tour right at departure time without any staff present at either the ferry or the glacier, and while already knowing the tour would likely not proceed, is simply not acceptable. A call just five minutes earlier could have saved us the ferry tickets and the trouble. Letting us believe the tour might still happen and then going silent with no response to calls is extremely unprofessional. We are still awaiting written confirmation that we will receive a full refund for this trip and we are contacting the Consumer Cancel to file a complaint. I can see from a previous review that this isn’t the first time that this has happened. It is simply an unacceptable way to manage a business and I cannot recommend that you use them.

A very frivolous approach. The glacier tour was arranged very far in advance, the entire tour of Norway was set up to see Svartisen. After reaching the ship, we call MeløyAdventure, we are informed that the guide is waiting on the ship, of course there was no guide. The whole day was ruined, a big disappointment with the company's approach. I do not recommend

We had a great day with our guide Ulrik on Svartisen glacier! He is a very knowledgable guy, and explained a lot about the glacier and the surroundings. The tour was tailored to our liking as we were just with two. We had nice convesations about generic stuf in Norway and he tipped us to visite a bakery in Lom. Great tip Ulrik! Thanls for the great experience! Amanda and Marc

I would advice against using this company. We had booked a 7 hour glacier hike, but the guide never showed up, cancelled the trip late, so that we were already on the ferry to Svartisen. He let us believe that the trip may still be happening for a long time, then eventually cancelled when asked directly 3 hours later. He’s not answering the phone so we’re not sure we are getting our money back. We are taking this to the Norwegian consumer council.

(Translated by Google) On the way to the starting point you will regularly find signs "P Svartisen". When you get there, you find that the parking lot is closed and there are no boats. You can park on the street beforehand, but expect a few campers there. The path from the "parking lot" on the street to the boat launch is about 2km on a gravel road. From there it's about 4km along the lake and then another 3km to the tongue. We went there by bike, which is highly recommended for the route to the boat dock. There was/is a campsite at the boat launch that is closed. Everything looks pretty run down. Will it open again? The path along the lake is overgrown and extremely (!) muddy. You're more likely to wade than hike. We are by no means fans of tourist boats, but in hindsight we would have taken the boat (if it was running). Once you get to the end of the lake, the path becomes dry and rocky. You are in a beautiful glacier landscape with rushing water and a great glacial lake. There is a small shelter within sight of the tongue. Now anyone who has ever seen a glacier will be a little disappointed. It's still nice, but in my opinion not worth the effort and the terrible muddy path. You can trudge back again... (Original) Auf dem Weg zum Ausgangspunkt ist regelmäßig eine Beschilderung "P Svartisen" zu finden. Wenn man aktuell dort ankommt, muss man feststellen dass der Parkplatz gesperrt ist und kein Boot fährt. Man kann vorher an der Straße parken, dort ist aber mit einigen Campern zu rechnen. Der Weg vom "Parkplatz" an der Straße bis zum Bootsanleger ist ca. 2km über eine Schotterstraße. Von dort sind es etwa 4km am See entlang und dann nochmal 3km bis zur Zunge. Wir waren mit dem Fahrrad dort, was für die Wegstrecke bis zum Bootsanleger sehr zu empfehlen ist. Am Bootsanleger war/ist ein Campingplatz der geschlossen hat. Sieht alles recht herunter gekommen aus. Ob der nochmal aufmacht? Der Weg am See entlang ist verwachsen und extrem (!) matschig. Man watet eher als man wandert. Wir sind beileibe keine Touriboot Fans, aber wir hätten im Nachhinein das Boot genommen (wenn es fahren würde). Am Ende des Sees angekommen wird der Weg trocken und felsig. Man befindet sich in einer schönen Gletscherlandschaft mit reißendem Wasser und einem tollen Gletschersee. In Sichtweite der Zunge befindet sich ein kleiner Unterstand. Nun wer schon einmal einen Gletscher gesehen hat, wird ein wenig enttäuscht sein. Es ist trotzdem schön, aber aus meiner Sicht den Aufwand und den fürchterlichen Matschweg nicht wert. Den darf man ja wieder zurück stapfen...

For the traveler a good place to stop and do your shoppings. The city is industrial so don't expect some beautiful views. The ladies from the tourist information really do their best.

Good place to get tips what is around Mo I Rana. Highly recommend.

God service

(Translated by Google) Ok place, but no more. (Original) Ok plass, men ikke mere.

(Translated by Google) Very good place (Original) Veldig bra plass

(Translated by Google) Fine. (Original) Fint.

Gormley's massive statue is an eerie presence in the fjord at the Mo i Rana waterfront, with an ever changing aspect as the weather changes.

Easy walk from EV charging area near Kiwi supermarket.

Very cozy place, Havmann is a symbol of Mo I Rana, made of arctic granite.

A haunting Anthony Gormley statue looking out to sea from Mo I Rana. There’s a glass panel to allow for great views, with some Norwegian inscriptions. If you get here earlier in the day, there are some built in recliner sun loungers which would be great to catch some rays. There are other seating options too, should you need a driving break like us before heading to the Arctic Circle centre! @heightofeurope 🇬🇧> 🇳🇴 > 🇪🇸 There are no toilets nearby.

The Art of Arctic Circle | Mo I Rana

Nothing spectacular but when weather is nice this is a nice place to spend time. Sturdy concrete chairs to sit on.

Kind of creepy statue, but interesting to see. Easy to find. There is a nice promenade at the statue.

Spelunking and hiking in the largest cave system in sweden. Great guides and food!

(Translated by Google) Personal and professional! We have been waiting a long time for the twins to turn 10 so we could do this activity, and it was well worth the wait! Everyone loved the food - local and well cooked. Extra plus to the history lessons of the hike there, and the flower information on the hike home. Cannon with kids, the world's experience! (Original) Personligt och proffsigt! Vi har väntat länge på att tvillingarna skulle fylla 10 år så vi kunde göra denna aktivitet, och det var väl värt väntan! Alla älskade maten - lokal och vällagat. Extra plus till historie-lärdomarna på vandringen dit, och blomsterinformationen på vandringen hem. Kanon med barn, världens upplevelse!

We had a great time during the family rafting, thanks to professional guidance by Momo and Ida. The river offers fast rapids, swimming and even some cliff jumping! We highly recommend to all!

Loved my first raftingexperience! They can offer everything from familytrips to more rough trips down the river in å couple hours or 2days trips.

Great rafting activity on our way south. It is a highlight in our trip!! We had a great time and a lot of fun. The owners and our guide Vetle are very professional. The river is a combination of rapids and calm waters. I was afraid of the water temperature, but with the equipment they provide, it is absolutely fine. Thank you for this great experience!! 😀

Our group were lucky to kayak 7 days of grade 4 with the calm and kind River North team, who guided us across the exceptional offerings which Trofors and surrounding areas had to offer. Mariann, Joe, Rhys and Zach fostered a sense of confidence and safety whilst encouraging each of us to push to the upper end of our comfort zone. The team were both flexible and attentive to detail to make each day special (e.g. with media, swapping our boats to play boats to make sections more challenging, doing shuttles at different sections for members with varying energy levels). Grateful for the week we received and hope to be back soon.

Great place for rafting. Instructors are friendly, professional and easy to like. The experience itself is great fun with a lot of freedom to jump off the boat whenever you want etc. Worth the money!

This was maybe the highlight of our trip. We had an excellent time. The team is a group of professionals who are concerned about your safety. The customer service is excellent and we highly recommend it. Thanks again for a great day.

Highly recommended, alot of fun for the hole family!😊 Very professional crew and guids are following on the journeys! 👍 Thanks to Momo and Joe for an excellent ride down Auster Vefsna!!! 💪👍

Watching the power of this wide cascade is impressive. You can walk down to the cliffs in front of the waterfall being smoked by water droplets, admire it from the restaurant terrace or see it from above to the left of the well stocked store. Fly fishing is going on and if you are lucky you can see a salmon mounting the salmon staircase.

The weather was not on our side so we did not go down to the bottom but the waterfall itself was impressive.

amazing spot! Definitely worth taking a look if you’re nearby.

Meh, if you pass by sure go and stop. If you have to go more then 5 minutes out of your way then don't bother. Yes to do see a small 'waterfall' but the 'path' down is not really a path and the view is not that great. Sure n interesting location to eat but no more then that.

Don't trust Google Maps and go to Laksforsen Turist Cafe where is also parking. Google Maps was navigatings us to closed road.

If you click on this spot on google maps you will be directed to a shitty road that leads to a closed off area with a crazy golden retriever, making it very hard to turn your car. Definitely click the tourist senter instead.

Such a beautiful place.

Amazing place🧡

Nice

(Translated by Google) Must say this was a fantastic church from the early 13th century. Having only read the info sign at the car park, I was really curious about what was inside. The rumor says, or, the info sign says, that the church is built on three levels. Which is probably very rare. I don't know what three planes means. 3 floors? Possible. Other rumors say that Norway's largest Mausoleum can be found in the church. Young people in the 60s sneaked in through a small window, as part of a test of courage. The mausoleum can be visited by seeking out a guided tour. Talking. (Original) Må si dette var en fantastisk kirke fra tidlig 1200-tallet. Ettersom å kun ha lest info-skiltet ved parkeringen, ble jeg virkelig nysgjerrig på hva som finnes inne. Ryktet sier, eller, info-skiltet sier at kirken er bygget på tre plan. Noe som trolig er svært sjeldent. Ikke vet jeg hva tre plan betyr. 3 etasjer? Mulig. Andre rykter sier at Norges største Mausoleum finnes i kirken. Ungdommer på 60-tallet snek seg inn gjennom et lite vindu, som en del av en modighetsprøve. Mausoleumet kan besøkes ved å oppsøke guidet tur. Snakkes.

(Translated by Google) Short and effective guide. The visit was magnificent and it was great to see the church and the mausoleum. It may seem that the Facebook page provides the best updates on guiding and changes. (Original) Kort og effektiv guide. Besøket var storslagent og det var flott å se kirken og mausoleet. Kan virke som at facebooksiden gir best oppdatering om guiding og endringer.

(Translated by Google) Dønne's farm manages the neighborhood poorly. On Sunday 4 July, the pre-harvester went into full swing as soon as the churchgoers had left the church. No notice that there was no guiding either. (Original) Dønnes gård forvalter naboskapet dårlig. Søndag 4.juli gikk forhøsteren for fullt så snart kirkegjengerne hadde gått ut av kirken. Ikke noe oppslag om at det ikke var guiding heller.

(Translated by Google) Very interesting church from the early 13th century, especially the iron tombs are impressively well preserved. Unfortunately the church itself was closed. (Original) Sehr interessante Kirche aus dem frühen 13. Jahrhundert, vor allem die Eisernen Gräber sind beeindruckend gut erhalten. Die Kirche selbst war leider geschlossen.

(Translated by Google) The church is closed to the public who do not want a guide. Only two tours on Saturday made it impossible for us to attend, so this was disappointing. (Original) Kirken holder stengt for publikum som ikke ønsker guide. Kun to omvisninger på lørdag gjorde det umulig for oss å delta, så dette var skuffende.

We stumbled across this place while driving the Kystricksveien. As we are British atheists we skipped the museum as the religious poetry would probably be wasted on us. However, I was blown away with how they had carved out the granite to fit the museum in between. The stone is just stunning and it's amazing to think of the work involved to do this. The grounds were also very pleasant with a walk to the lake, church, cemetery, grass roofed buildings and picnic benches. The cafe was also great, with a nice view of the water and good selection of cakes, that the staff helpfully talked us through. The lunch menu also looked good.

Well, the museum is very modern in structure and type. It has a lot of wonderful insightful materials. And the grounds are the most amazing.

Interesting with alot of reading. The building is great

I am very happy each time I come here where my great great grandparents, Aunts, Uncles and Cousin rest in peace. The fact it's where the Poet Peter Daas was a Priest does not matter to me one bit. It's very serene, and beautiful right on the North Artic Sea.

OK. The buildings and area around was clean and tidy. Cafeteria and toilets, OK. The museum building it self is special in it self, whit the clean rock surface at the sides. All in all I will stretch to 4 stars.

Fantastic place to visit. Its great importance historically and architecturally is magnificently presented and made available. And an extra bonus is the brilliant staff possessing great knowledge.

Good service, prices are high, nice setup and location. Could use interactiv assistance and menu could use more Petter Dass branding

Very entertaining, interesting and family-friendly park. We really got close up with the animals and experienced some unforgettable moments. Many activities for the kids. If you pass through this area with the family I highly recommend paying a visit. Campsite and hotel on the other side of the road.

Very nice animal park with lots of activities for kids. Animals were hiding in the shade when we were there in 30c. Understandable. We wanted to join the bear in its shade.

Very friendly People and a great place to relax. A small restaurant s also available. Enjoy a beautiful day.

Average experience. The staff tried their best but there were too many issues to fully enjoy it.

Beautifully maintained and green zoo. The animal enclosures are very large, sometimes a challenge to see them.

Nice family park , it has really nice combination between the animals they have and the activities that you can enjoy , for sure during the summer time so you can enjoy more outside to grill and chill out 👍

Nice place for children in the age 3+. Plenty animals and activities. Even if it consumes some money to spend a day there for a family, it is a memory that children remembers. Some activities has to be paid for extra, in addition to the entrance fee, like the Zip-line (photo), the climbing area and the internal shuttle train. The crash-boats were fun, but there was also a lot of people waiting for thos, so expect some waiting there. Also the downhill carting/roller coaster was fun for the kids, but might not be something for those below 4years old. The day we were there, it was more than 30deg temperature...

Salmons are trapped at the end of the fish stairs as the last pool is closed by a gate! Nice hike though at the east side of the river

Great nature, great food, we will definitely come back :-)

Great view from the powerstation bridge

Super

(Translated by Google) Salmon in many forms! And the view is great too. It's worth taking a break on the E6 here! (Original) Lachs in vielen Formen! Und die Aussicht ist auch toll. Eine Pause auf der E6 lohnt sich hier!

(Translated by Google) Great place and not least fantastic food! This is recommended. I'll stop by here next time I'm passing too. Have fun! (Original) Flott sted og ikke minst fantastisk mat! Dette anbefales. Innom her skal jeg neste gang jeg passerer også. God fornøyelse!

Lovely place to go out with friends and family. The instructors had really fun teaching us how to use the climbing system and it was enjoyable overall. The view from the top is beautiful, love the ziplines and the climbing varying from easy to difficult. Was really fun. We also lived in a cottage it was cozy and warm and fun.

Rainy day, so it was not busy. Various tracks and especially ziplines over the water were incredible. You can also bring own food, there is fridge and microwave but also small cafeteria. Only minus that it closes early in the evenings.

This place is full of fun. I loved the Zip lines. Get early to have enough time to try out as many as possible and mostly Sunday to avoid crowds.

What an incredible place! Kept 3 teenage boys happy for 6 hours!!

perhaps the best adventure park we've been to yet! No fooling around when they mean "this one will be challanging" but plenty of things to entertain and exercise all players

Great fun for the whole family, recommended to have a stay at the bear lidgr (Bjørnehi)

Lots of family fun. If you like climbing, this is a nice place to visit. Come early to minimize que time.

👍Enjoy

Wasn’t open during the supposed opening hours. The only good thing is that they had a box outside with the small guide.

Not open during opening hours. No answers on emails.

It's a Monday so this may only apply to this day at this date. It was great to walk around and see the sights. But nothing was open to allow you inside and nobody was around anywhere in the form of staff. However the church was open with very helpful staff and it was very interesting to visit. The only bonus was the outside was free.

On a Monday it is not advisable to go. The exhibition was disappointing. I expected to see more artifacts, Replica's or real one's only thing was banners with the story. The buildings are nice but dull when you only can walk along them. Only church is open AND that is worth the visit.

Fantastic architecture Good local guide

Beautiful church and lots of places to explore

I recommend this place for everyone

Nice place to find out about Viking culture, kids like to feed animals and activities like shooting with bow and axe throwing.

Nice place for family with kids. God food, great service and actors. Includes good activities for everyone.

Nice place to get a insight into the history of the farm. Today, the farm is still operating and produces cheese and ice cream to be purchased in a very small shop.

Fantastic cheese and ice cream. It's wonderful to enjoy one of the farm's many ice cream flavours in their beautiful farm yard during the summer season. Worth a visit on it's own!

Probably the best blue cheese I've ever had.

visit this morning Astrid here store (winkel) I'll recommend everyone who's around their to visit them. Astrid informed us very well about the things they are doing there,and we bought some products 👌👌👌

This is the place with the worlds best cheese 2023, the Nidelven blue. Amazing and worth a visit at the farm shop with a lot of goodies.

A lovely place with very nice and good service. The selection of food and drinks is very interesting and good. I enjoyed the food a lot and it's worth the money. The area is also very beautiful and definitly a highlight in the Gyldne Omvei.

Idyllic farm, café and store situated along the “gylden omvei”. Serves delicious ice cream and other home made items that you can eat right there or take home. Highly recommend.

Beautiful & free to visit. We went outside of the opening hours and it was able to visit. It’s huge and it had some nice hikes, but the destinations of the walks are not really worth the walks. The restrooms are old and not well maintained, but still open outside of operation hours. Worth the visit!

Very special building. Mainly original with ongoing restoration. Easy to get lost due to the many ways you can walk and lots of stairs going everywhere.

Don't be discouraged by the inconspicuous access road up the mountain or the tight turns on the way. This is a must see historical sight, particularly for those interested in WW2 history. True to its name, this site is a fortress of significant size with a maze of tunnels.

Free parking, free museum and visit to the fortress, free toilets. It's fun to walk around the underground tunnels. The opening hours of the cafe are unknown - updated information is needed on site, on Facebook, on Google and on the website. Today the cafe was not open.

An interesting and unique place for military history and World war fans. This fortress carved out of the rocky mountain was a bunker back in the day. You can go through the tunnels and various rooms and observation posts. There is a free mini museum with minimal description of the events that happened here.

Great place to visit and wander around. Quite a bit of history and amazing how the Norwegians held out against the Germans. Heaps of parking as we visited on a Monday with our 7m Motorhome. Road was not too bad, keep an eye out for passing bays

We were on our way to Sweden annd passed the signs for the fortress. We thought "why not. Stretch our legs little." After a dirt road and a verry cool but steap uphill climb with our old campervan we reached the parking with a big sign "NO CAMPING". No problem. Let's have a look. 1st we went to a house which shows a short but clear history of when, why and how it was built, + who was there. Not only the Norwegian but also German and Sweedish armies. The exposition shows equipment, arms and uniforms of all sides. All information is Norwegian but there are booklets on stands with the main stories and information in English. After the museum there was another building which housed some nicely restored artillery, I believe for temporary storage, but we were free to have a look anyway. Than we went uphill to the actual fortress. It is really impressive. The size of it and the atmosphere you sence when you wondering through each room, stairway and corridor. You can climb up into the command towers via old rusty ladders. Climb granite stairs and walk around the turrets. You can also wander around outside along the walls and on top of the fortress. It's unbelievable thinking how it must have been, being there whilst the place was being besieged, shelled and bombed. You're allowed to go almost anywhere and all of this is amazingly free. It is all ran by volunteers and everything looks well kept after. What an absolute gem. Takk to all involved for making and keeping this site accessible for the public to see. I've never seen anything like it.

Don't come here for the food! This place has made an effort to look like an American 50's diner, and they've sort of managed it. But the food is utter nonsense! They offer "burgers"and sandwiches. Everything's dry, and you can really taste the "cheapest frozen meat patty available"-quality of the meal. At these exuberant prices, the food should be several orders of magnitude better looking and tasting... I can't imagine anyone coming back for the food. The atmosphere, sure, but NOT for the food.

Expensive tourists trap with grumpy waitresses. Lots of cool 50s us memorabilia stuff made in china decorations though. Plates and food ok.

Nice diner, styled in American 60's furniture and decorations in the middle of nowhere (almost), yet central along HWY E6 in Norway.

At least 45 minutes between ordering and getting served. Over-rated place, burger is very dry.

Super atmosphere! Nice small museum and a good old school American diner.

A really cool place to visit. A lot of cool things to see and the food at the diner was great.

So many different sizes shapes colors etc truly a magical place
