HI Borlaug Youth and Family Hostel

HI Borlaug is located by the idyllic Lærdalen, which offers great nature and cultural experiences for its guests. The hostel does not serve breakfast, but guests have the opportunity to use our well-equipped guest kitchen

Borlaug´s most famous attraction is Borgund Stave Church (1150), one of the best preserved stave churches in Norway.

There are also excellent opportunities for walking and hiking in the area, e.g. on the old King's Road, many parts of which have a beautiful view.

Fishing licenses can be purchased at www.inatur.no - Trout fish in the beautiful Borgund River. The Lærdal river is one of Norway's best salmon fishing rivers.

HI Borlaug Youth and Family hostel is situated – close by the river - at the crossroad Rv52 (from Gol) and E16 ( from Hemsedal). The area is excellent for hiking and fishing- ask the warden for more information about local tours and fishing. 

The hostel offers different kinds of accommodation, single room, double room and family room. Single bed in a multi-bedded room (sharing with people of the same sex) is also available. Good self catering facilities.
