Cultural and historical walk on Bakka

  • Bakka Nærøyfjorden Aurland kommune Norway (kart)

We mark the Cultural Heritage Days 2023!

Here you get the opportunity to be with those who know Bakka best and learn about settlement and farm history, about farmers and changes in agriculture through the centuries and up to the present day.

We first go for a walk with farmer Svein Tufte from Borgen Gard, through the steep bends above his farm and below the beach seating environment by the fjord. Then we make a stop in the yard of Dyrdal Gard and Camping, where Olav Magne and Katrine Dyrdal meet us, and we get the chance to see the ancient firehouse on the farm. The walk ends with a visit to the church from 1859.

The village Bakka lies in a majestic and powerful nature, protected as a landscape conservation area and on the UNESCO World Heritage List as one of the most important natural areas in the world. You will learn more about this and hear more about it on this day. There will be an opportunity to buy coffee/tea and something to eat, otherwise the tour is free.
