Discover Nordvik

If you choose Nordvik as a travel destination, you can plan your trip around a range of interests: Hamptjärnen is an idyllic forest pond with a barbecue area, and on the return journey you can enjoy a view of Norafjärden. There are also guided canoe tours, hikes and activities involving horses, dogs and horticulture. Nature by the water and organized activities offer different ways to shape your stay according to your own preferences.

Water, trails and nature

Hamptjärnen in Nordvik is an idyllic forest pond with a barbecue area. If you plan to use the site, check its condition in person before your visit. The route also offers views of the landscape: a municipal hiking description from 2020 mentions a view of Norafjärden on the return journey from Hamptjärnen. Trail conditions may change; check them before setting out.

Norafjärden is also the setting for guided canoe tours offered in Nordvik. For hikes, set out from Nordvik to one of Erik Daniels’ cabins. This gives you different ways to enjoy the outdoors: a guided tour on the water or a hike to a cabin. Which one fits your travel plans better depends on whether you would rather paddle or explore on foot.

Agriculture and education

Since 1868, Nordvikskolan has offered agricultural education at the same location. Nordvik’s Natural Resource Use Programme (Naturbruksprogrammet) covers the specializations of horse care, horticulture, animal care and agriculture. Together, this information gives agricultural education in Nordvik a clear framework: its scope ranges from working with animals to horticulture and agriculture. This perspective complements the nature and water experiences with another topic to consider when planning your trip.

Activities in different formats

For horseback riding, there is a distinction between a riding session and a booking for group riding. You can book a riding session without exclusive use of the riding arena or indoor riding hall. For group riding, however, you can book the entire indoor riding hall or the large outdoor riding arena. This lets you choose the format according to whether you want a riding session without exclusive use or a booking of the entire riding area for a group. Availability and conditions may change; check them before booking.

The dog hall and other rooms can be booked for dog activities. The dog hall has equipment for agility, working dog sports obstacles, Hoopers, rally obedience and nosework training. These facilities illustrate the range of training options, from agility to scent work. Since equipment availability and booking conditions may change, it is advisable to check before making plans.

Dining and horticulture

Restaurant Nordvik serves breakfast, lunch, coffee and cake, as well as dinner; non-residents are also welcome to eat there. The chefs prepare the food from scratch and use, among other things, produce from the farm in Nordvik. Service hours may change, so check them if you plan to include a restaurant visit in your day.

Individual planting tables in the summer greenhouse can be rented for the entire growing season. This seasonal offer is for anyone interested in horticulture who would like to work at a planting table themselves. The growing season and availability may change; check both before making plans.
