MOUNTAIN SPORTS AND KAYAKING

Send application

Do you want to learn river kayaking and experience the wild nature of northern Norway? Then the half-year course Mountain Sports and Kayaking is for you.

This is the line for you who need a little more action than average. With one of Northern Norway's best starting points for nature experiences, the opportunities are lined up for us.

Our goal is for you to have challenges and experiences during spring, and that you can grow as a person. The content of the line is adapted to your individual level, and the most important thing is that you are motivated. Then together we can create good memories, break boundaries, invent things together and enjoy the northern Norwegian nature to the fullest.

Mosjøen is located in the middle between world-class rivers and sea kayaking areas. With over 30,000 islands, islets and reefs, it is no wonder that the Helgeland coast is constantly mentioned as one of the world's most beautiful paddle pearls. In addition, world-famous paddle rivers flow out right next to the school, and we collaborate with River North in the neighboring municipality of Grane. In your free time you can borrow the school's new sea kayaks and go on your own trips on the weekends

Fjellsport og Kajakk reiser på studietur til Georgia for å stå på ski i Kaukassusfjellene, nærmere bestemt frikjøringsparadiset Gudauri. Dette er en bortgjemt perle som byr på frikjøring i verdensklasse. Med skikjøring i fokus står vi mye på ski i Gudauri skianlegg som ligger på det sørvendte platået til kaukasussfjellene. Dette er et unikt anlegg på rundt 2200 meter over havet. Kanskje prøver vi oss på paragliding!

Georgia er en perle i hjertet av Kaukasus og befinner seg på den historiske silkeveien der øst møter vest. Georgia er blant våre eldste sivilisasjoner og er kjent for sin gjestfrihet. Vi besøker hovedstaden Tbilisi og tilbringer der noen dager for å bli bedre kjent med kulturen. Her kommer vi garantert til å få noen fine kulturmøter.  Kanskje besøker vi svovelbadene i gamlebyen for å få varmen i oss, kanskje stikker vi på basarene for å sjekke ut georgisk håndverk. Maten i Georgia er en fusjon av europeisk og asiatisk kjøkken og er virkelig nydelig. Det er mye spennende å oppleve i Tbilisi og i forkant av turen jobber vi med planlegging av aktiviteter og severdigheter vi ønsker å oppleve på vår reise.

Towards the end of the school year, we take you on an adventure trip to The coast of Helgeland, also called the world's most beautiful archipelago. You can't have been in Helgeland for so long without getting this! We aim for several attractions on the trip, hopefully to end up at Træna. Træna is an island municipality 33 nautical miles off the coast of Helgeland. There has been settlement here ever since the Stone Age, 9,000 years ago. This wonderful island municipality that is flourishing like never before. You may have heard of Trænafestivalen?

On 15.2 km² you will meet the people of the sea. They count 453 people, and have an entrepreneurial mentality that you have never seen. You will have the opportunity to have a milkshake at Aloha café, drink Helgeland's best cappuccino at Træna Kaffekollektiv and eat a delicious dinner at Havfolkets hus. You will have the opportunity to sing together in Kirkehelleren, walk up to the NATO station at Gompen or walk the love path around the mountains at Sanna. If you want to go fishing or sit in the sauna at the boathouse, this is also an option. Or perhaps you would like to visit the Petter Dass chapel, which was decorated by the artist Karl Erik Harr? It's just a lot to look forward to!

Vefsn Folkehøgskole TOPPEN is an active and creative school, placed on the top of a hill on the outskirts of Mosjøen in the middle of Norway. But still far enough up north that the northern lights dance across the sky regularly during the winther.

We want you to experience COURAGE, MASTERY and OPPORTUNITIES when you are a student with us. In a safe community and with many new experiences, you have good opportunities for personal growth and lifelong learning. For us, professional quality and well-being for everyone is important.

To make the most of the year, we think it's important that you have a vibrant and varied environment around you. Here you can find urban and great nature, safety and excitement, humor and seriousness, professional quality and well-being, combined with committed teachers. Security and challenges, good social environment and professional development are equally important.

The school is well equipped in all classes and there is wifi throughout the school. In addition, we have several common areas like a fitness room, rooms to socialize, student kitchen ... yes, all we need to do well. Our accommodation kitchen is one of the best, and we are spoiled by skilled chefs and good food all year round.

Another thing we emphasize is to have employees who are not only proficient in their subject but mean something more for the students. With us you will find people who have energy and humor, and teachers who want to bring out the best in you. Our students should feel included and appreciated, and we are all concerned that our students should feel at home and have a good time.
