As it was my birthday while we were in the are Mrs Mono kindly bought me a helicopter flight over the national park, mountains, lakes and fjords which offered breathtaking views of everything in the area, but especially the Jostedal Glacier. For security reasons, we weren't allowed to fly directly over the glacier, but we got as close as possible, and I would recommend this extra without a doubt - I would have sacrificed dinner and drinks were it a question of money - a once in a lifetime experience!

Nice building and shop. The content of the video about avalanches is good, but it is old (2008!). So it lacks the drastic climate changes of the last 2 decennia... The quality is mediocre: bad picture and sound. The much more modern projection on the large walls and floor is nice and immersive, but lacks good content... My suggestion: a new video with the old video's content on the new projection system? 🤩 The stone exhibition outside is just ... boring. Probably, a good (audio) guide might help 🤔 But if you want to fill an hour on a rainy day, I would still recommend the visit.

Amazingly friendly staff who'll happily give advice and help you out. This place also has a nice exhibition and all the information you'll need before visiting glaciers. There is also a nice selection of maps here. As well as a nice cafe and useful facilities. Big thumbs up! Go here first!

A small beautiful center situated by lake Oppstryn and surrounded by dramatic mountains. Interesting botanical garden to learn about some native plants, trees, and flowers that represent the local flora and amazing people to inform you about the area. (Last year's photos)

It was a little small, but it was nice. Also nice souvenirs and a great movie about this Fjord, which’s also in the Dutch language available. Lovely people working here and the garden outside was also nice with a great view.

We were looking for information about hiking to glaciers in this area and we were helped enthusiastically and exceptionally well! The souvenir shop also stands out for good quality items, not the standard tourist shop stuff.
