Myrdal Farm is located 250 meters above sea level on the island of Tysnes in Sunnhordland, south of Bergen.
Myrdal Gård is a 10-minute drive from the ferry terminal in Våge.
Jasper and Nynke van Schaik took over the farm when they moved here from the Netherlands in 2013. They combine the renowned Dutch cheese-making tradition with exquisite local ingredients. Myrdal Farm has a small dairy where they produce various cheeses from both cow's and goat's milk. Enthusiastic cheese lovers at the dairy ensure that the ingredients are of the highest quality and handled according to the strictest hygiene standards. The cheeses are aged under optimal temperature and humidity conditions to fully develop their flavor potential. Over the past few years, various Myrdal cheeses have won several medals at the World Cheese Awards.
Myrdal cheese is sold in select grocery stores and specialty shops across Norway.
The farm shop is open during the spring and summer seasons.

From Myrdal Farm, the Sherpa trail (sherpastien) begins, leading up to the highest mountain on Tysnes: Tysnessåto, which stands 753 meters above sea level. The hike to the summit takes about 2 hours, and the farm shop at Myrdal is a great place to start your journey, an even better spot to rest afterward, or simply a fantastic location to watch other hikers embark on their adventure.
