Farthest inside the 20-mile-long Sognefjorden, where Utladalen, Norway´s Grand Canyon, carries the fjord deeper into the Jotunheimen National Park region, lies idyllic, but industrial Årdal, a village rich in industry-traditions. The geographical location makes Årdal a natural starting point for activities in Utladalen - the deepest valley in Norway, fjord activities, or visits to other attractions in the region.
New 2 Norway's language training takes place at Svalheim Farm, which is located by the Utla river, the entrance to Jotunheimen National Park, and surrounded by breathtaking mountains.
New 2 Norway's Explore Language Package (ELP) in Sognefjorden is an intensive language course where you dive into Norwegian Language and Culture.
You will have 20 lessons over 5 days. The lessons last 45 minutes, but this does not mean you will be in front of the whiteboard memorizing words all day long. Not at all!
Depending on the interests of participants (max 6), many activities can be arranged.
Most activities offered in this Explore Language Package are connected to hiking and outdoor activities. There are many activities to choose from, please take a look at www.visitardal.com to get some ideas.
What you can expect is not a traditional class but a truly immersive experience.
Our courses in Sognefjorden start on Wednesdays and run for 5 days until Tuesday, giving you a break of 2 days in between (Saturday & Sunday) to review and rehearse, or you might choose to go from Monday () to Friday, it is always an option.
