    Spain

    One of the highlights of the year is the study trip to the Canary Islands. Here we get to experience what the islands have to offer in terms of activity and spectacular experiences. Via Ferrata, cycling, volcano visits and wild nature are some of the things we will experience.

    The beaches in Spain invite us to surf, beach volleyball, water activities and beautiful sunsets. All this together on a line where you will probably make friends for life. Check out what the class Explore did on last year's trip here!

    In addition to the focus areas, there are endless opportunities to try other activities on the line. Maybe Teqball or spikeball will be an activity you just have to play daily?

    When the autumn chill sets in, we head south for our first international adventure — to sunny Spain!

    On the Canary Islands, you’ll experience everything these unique islands have to offer — from rich culture and exciting activities to breathtaking nature. We’ll explore via ferrata routes, go cycling, visit volcanic landscapes, and discover wild, untouched nature. The beaches invite us to enjoy surfing, beach volleyball, water activities, and unforgettable sunsets — all while building friendships that can last a lifetime.

    We’ll also dive into a fascinating culture rooted in Spanish traditions, yet shaped by its close connection to the west coast of Africa.

    PS! Love to travel?
    At Hurdal Verk, you choose two different lines — which means at least two amazing travel destinations during the year!

    This is how it works at our school:

    • At Verk Folk High School, international students are not placed in separate classes. Instead, they are fully integrated into regular classes alongside Norwegian students who speak both Norwegian and English.

    Our experience shows that this creates real friendships and helps students learn the language faster and more naturally.

    • That is why "Norwegian for Foreigners" is not a separate study line, but an additional course for those who want to learn Norwegian.
    • This means you can freely choose from our wide range of main courses, without limitations.

    What makes Hurdal Verk even more unique is that all students take two main courses, not just one. This allows you to combine different interests, enjoy greater variety in your school year, and meet even more people — giving you a richer social and learning experience.

    • When you apply, you select your Line 1 and Line 2, and simply add Norwegian for Foreigners if you want Norwegian language training.
