Groundhopping ENGLAND

Mandatory: Yes

Price: Included in course price

Meals included per day: 2

På vår linjetur til England legger vi inn så mange kamper som mulig i løpet av en uke. Klarer vi 4 kamper på 3 dager? Vi ser både Premier League, Championship, lavere liga og kanskje cupkamper i løpet av turen. Vi opplever stemningen på ulike stadion og hvordan ihugga supportere roper spillerne sine fremover på banen. Vi prøver også å oppleve breddefotballens mor - Sunday League.

NB! Glad i å reise? Husk at du på Hurdal Verk velger 2 linjer og dermed minst 2 ulike reisemål i løpet av året!

 

Groundhopping EUROPE

Mandatory: Yes

Price: Included in course price

Meals included per day: 2

We travel by train through Europe — chasing football dreams and unforgettable atmospheres!

It’s a thrill to stand inside Signal Iduna Park with 80,000 fans watching Borussia Dortmund, or to feel the raw energy at a packed Bochum match in the 2. Bundesliga. German football is hugely underrated in Norway — with the highest average attendance in all of Europe and an atmosphere that’s second to none. The singing, passion, and togetherness both inside and outside the stadium are simply unforgettable.

We’ll travel across Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands, visiting stadium after stadium and catching exciting matches — maybe even seeing some Norwegian players in action! And if we’re lucky, we might experience a Champions League match during the year.*

*Note: The final match schedule is decided together with the students after school starts, depending on fixtures, costs, and ticket availability.

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

At Hurdal Verk Folk High School we have welcomed international students for more than 40 years. We know what it takes to help you succeed and feel at home.
