Imagine a year where you can be yourself. A year where you will meet a mix of fantastic people you never otherwise will encounter. A year filled with new friendships and unforgettable moments. A year where you will feel joy and accomplishment. This is a year at Fjordane folk high school.
Between the rough North Sea and the majestic Jostedalsbreen glacier lies our folk high school – nestled in what we fondly call our "Heartplace". Nordfjordeid is just the right size. Big enough to offer everything you need, small enough to feel like it is all yours.
With 11 exciting courses, you will have the chance to discover new sides of yourself, try things you never have done before – or delve deeper into what you already love. Our dedicated teachers are passionate about their fields and want you to feel the same excitement.
Maybe your dream is to stand on a stage – as a circus artist, singer, or actor? Maybe you want to immerse yourself in the Viking history? Maybe you want a horse of your own or to work with horses? Maybe you love creating art with your hands or want to give new life to your grandmother’s old dress?
Or maybe you simply want to experience the raw nature of Western Norway and learn to stand on your own two feet? At Fjordane Folk High School, you can do all this while making a difference. 💚
Throughout the year, we participate in projects that give back to others, fostering a warmer, more inclusive community. One highlight is our study trip to the Philippines, which is part of our "Project Philippines" initiative.
Join us in creating your best year, filled with growth, joy, and friendship.

What we stand for
We are an inclusive and climate-conscious folk high school. At Fjordane, you can be yourself in a safe and supportive environment that celebrates diversity and champions your success. We care about our people, our planet, and the community around us. Every day, we strive to make thoughtful choices for a better future.
We appreciate tasty and healthy meals. Dietary needs are no barrier for us. Our chefs love making flavourful dishes using local and seasonal ingredients whenever possible. We even grow our own vegetables!
The liberal folk high schools are built on values that are not based on one particular belief. They encourage students with different interests and beliefs to apply.
