WHAT YOU VISIT
A Culinary Odyssey from the Viking Era to Today
For centuries, Norway's dramatically varied landscape of mountains, wilderness, and coast has provided an abundance of healthy, fresh ingredients. Set out on a walking tour of Fjordstova and learn how Skjolden's food tells the story of Norwegian cuisine. Here, you'll meet your guide for your culinary adventure. Watch a captivating video and hear lively commentary about the lives, work, and leisure of the townsfolk. Then, sample small but nourishing bites of local delicacies of modern dishes as well as those that date back to the Vikings.

PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
Stunning fjords and serene mountains are the backdrop for your culinary tasting.

SAMPLES
Many of today's dishes are rooted in Skjolden's past including "rømmegraut," a Norwegian porridge made with sour cream, whole milk, wheat flour, butter, and salt; and "brunost," a sweet, soft cheese made brown when milk sugars caramelize after boiling (the ideal topping for bread and crackers, the cheese is also popular in fondue).

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
From the pier, it's a brief walk to Fjordstova, the center of Skjolden, which sits at the edge of a glacial lake.
