Mini course in bushcraft

Bushcraft is about being able to take care of yourself in nature with simple means. In this mini-course you will learn a little about what bushcraft is and you will learn to handle a knife, axe and saw in simple and safe ways, and you will learn to light a fire without the use of matches or a lighter. Suitable for everyone, no prior knowledge necessary.

Pentathlon as team building

Through a pentathlon with tasks and challenges that suit everyone, we create space for collaboration, mastery and joy for small and large groups. We provide several guides depending on the size of the group.

Everything takes place in the vicinity of the farm, and it all ends with a joint gathering that brings all the teams together as a unit.

Touring ice skating – Norway's new winter activity


Vansjø is just as beautiful in summer as it is in winter. An eldorado for those who love the outdoors. In cold, snowy winters, this is a favorite place for ice skaters. This is an activity with a strong focus on safety, and an activity that can only be done when the ice is good enough. The reward is a fantastic and unique nature experience with locally known guides/instructors. Here you will get the good stories, the background for old place names and Vansjø's history. Stop along the way for a bonfire and a real old-fashioned campfire coffee. You should have experience on ice skates, and equipment to travel safely on the ice. When booking, we will send you a required equipment list. We have limited equipment for loan.


We are happy to tailor a package in connection with a stay (accommodation, course or similar) here at Alpakkagaarden. For example, a one or two day course package for groups. Contact us via the form or by email.
