Arts & Culture
The norwegian museum of fishery is located in our neighbourhood and offers a review of a very important part of the history of Bergen and Norway. Fish has been and is a cornerstone in our economy, and the rich ocean has been a blessing for survival in our harsh and rural country. The trade of fish was the starting point for Bergens growth and prosperity, and a visit to the museum will give you a piece of this story! The museum has lots of activities for both children and adults. After your visit to the museum you should of course enjoy a small fjord cruise with the Beffen boat that takes you from Skuteviken to the fish market in the center of Bergen (takes about 20 minutes by boat).

Parks & Nature

A favourite is the round trip up Stoltzekleiven, hiking over to Fløyen for a nice meal and hiking back down to our place. This trip will take about 2-3 hours, depending on how long you want to hang around at Fløyen.
