FlatEarth- Ideal for active family holiday

Multi Activity Holidays- package of never-to-be-forgotten experiences in Eidfjord, Norway

The holidays by Flatearth provided with ideal solution for my two teenage kids bored with their stereotype life. I decided to break our tradition way of spending our holidays, so-called “lying on the beach” holidays and pick something absolutely different. I was lucky enough to discover FlatEarth on internet offering package of sport activities (incl. instructors and all equipment needed). All sport events don’t require any particular skills, everything available for beginners (of course advanced courses were at disposal as well), so ideal for my familyJ

Of course my kids were not so thrilled about this idea, but you should have seen their faces when we were passing the countryside from the airport for Eidfjord, which is located about 300km from Bergen and 350km from Oslo. Renting a car seemed to be adequat option for us intended to stop, take a rest, admire the nature and make some pictures. The journey took us longer than we expected but we weren’t in hurry. In the late afternoon we arrived to our camping just as near the lake as possible. Eidfjord neighbours to Hardangervidda National Park which is the largest national park in Norway and man can find here everything such as wild rivers, highland, fjords, lakes, waterfalls and glacier, why go anywhere else?

Just near the FlatEarth centre is unique restaurant with goats feeding on the grass on the roof, never seen anything like that before. According to our schedule next few days were fully occupied with sea kayaking, white water kayaking, glacier expedition, climbing, abseiling and canoe rental. Everything in one week, quite challenging‼ I must admit that I was bit worried how we can keep up but the instructors adjusted the tempo to our physical shape and we have overcome ourselves. And the kids just loved it. Not only the spectacular nature of Norway but also all these activities were really fun. During the last days we decided to explore the beauties of fjord and we took canoes. That day we got reallt lucky. We got to see 3 beautiful dolphins few meters from us, we all were amazed.

Eidfjord is magnific small, quiet place, but you can find there anything you want. Plenty of hotels with typical norwegian interior, cottages, campings, pubs and lots of events are taken place in here representing natural values and traditions.

Multi Activity Holidays by FlatEarth was extraordinary and I can only recommend it to those of you interested in exploring loveliness of unspoilt nature, not damaged by industrial civilization.
