Join the “fjord 2 TOP Expedition” from one of the deepest fjords in the world to the highest peak in Norway, Scandinavia and Northern Europe!
Get an idea about the “fjord 2 TOP Expedition” by watching our training video (made by 10-year-old Noe) and see if that fits you or even your family and friends:
The start is End of March or Begin of May, check dates.
Keep updated on our Facebook Event.
Norway is a unique place where the Ocean meets the Mountains and the Glaciers feed the Sea. This interconnection we like to show in an outdoor activity and celebrate the wonders of Norwegian natural wilderness. Our goal is that everybody, and especially kids, get a unique outdoor experience. Outdoor people are grounded in nature and therefore care more.
We are sailing from Kaupanger to the end of the fjord and have already other sailboats joining the event. From Skjolden we are moving on skis over five stages to the TOP of Galdhøppigen. Matthias Paetzel from the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences will explain the interconnection “from Mountain to Fjord” in our first hut “Turtagro”. We are keen to organize further activities that serve the environment. Please send us your ideas.
At this stage, we are already able to transport around 40 people along the fjord. It is possible to join us for some hours, single days or the whole trip. We are excited to carry out the expedition with many elated outdoor enthusiasts!
Here the height profile with the walking times for the different stages:
