På KRIK Global skaper vi den gode balansen mellom idrett og friluftsliv, fellesskap, tro, reise og møter med mennesker fra ulike kulturer. Høydepunktet blir vår linjetur til Australia og Asia, der vi tar med oss KRIK-gleden ut i verden!

Kristen Idrettskontakt (KRIK), er en organisasjon som ønsker å skape idrettsglede, trosglede og livsglede gjennom idrett og aktivitet. På linjen KRIK Global vil disse tre gledene være fokuset i alt vi gjør gjennom året. Du vil få ledertrening innen idrett og kristent arbeid, bli kjent med KRIK og inspireres av andre KRIK-ledere. 

Idrett

Vi prøver kjente og nye aktiviteter, med plass til både deg som har gjort mye før og deg som først og fremst liker å være med.

Friluftsliv

Vestlandet er vår nærmeste lekeplass. Med fokus på kystfriluftsliv drar vi på tur både langs kysten og i fjellheimen langs Vestlandets flotte fjorder. 

Våger du?

Vi utfordrer oss selv og kjenner på adrenalinet. Her handler det om å tørre å prøve, utfordre egne grenser og oppleve mestring.

Nordhordland Folk High School is a boarding school located just 20 minutes north of Bergen, surrounded by stunning fjords, mountains, and the raw beauty of Western Norway. With around 200 students every year, we are proud to be the largest folk high school in Norway – and one of the most vibrant!

At our school, there are no exams, no grades, and no stress – only learning through experience, exploration, and community. A folk high school year is a year for discovering who you are, building lifelong friendships, and trying things you’ve never done before.

We offer a wide range of courses (lines) – from travel, sports, music, and dance, to photography, outdoor life, and creative arts. In addition, you can choose from over 120 elective subjects, more than any other folk high school in Norway. That means you can shape your year exactly the way you want it!

Students at Nordhordland get to experience two unforgettable trips abroad – one with the whole school and one with their chosen course. Together, we explore exciting destinations across the world, creating memories that last a lifetime.

Life on campus is just as important as the learning. You’ll live in comfortable dorms, share everyday moments with friends, and enjoy delicious food prepared by our kitchen four times a day. After classes, you can relax in our cozy café, join evening activities, or use our amazing facilities – including a swimming pool, gym, sports hall, climbing wall, football field, and even a frisbee golf course.

Nordhordland is a Christian folk high school, but you don’t need to be Christian to join us. Everyone is welcome – no matter your background, beliefs, or life story. What matters most is curiosity, openness, and a willingness to take part in the community.

If you’re ready for a year full of adventure, learning, friendship, and personal growth – Nordhordland Folk High School is the place for you.
