Take an Explore break at the montainpass between Oslo and Bergen

Ustaoset is situated 990 m above sea level, where the rail line between Oslo, in the east, to Bergen, at the West Coast, provides year-round access to this high mountain valley.  Ustaoset has hotel and mountain resort cabins in the beautiful and breathtaking national park, Hardangervidda, where we explore winter activities in this wonderland.

Details of your course

New 2 Norway's Explore Language Package (ELP) at Ustaoset is an intensive language course where you dive into Norwegian Language, Traditions and Culture where "learn to survive the winter like Norwegians" is the main focus.


You will have 20 (30) lessons over 5 days, or if you are from Germany, you could do this as Bildungsurlaub. The lessons last 45 minutes, but this does not mean you will be in front of the whiteboard memorizing words all day long. Not at all!


We have customized an Explore Ustaoset in Winter where activities such as sauna, cross-country skiing, snow shoes and fishing, again, depending on the interests of participants (max 6), many activities can be arranged.


What you can expect is not a traditional class but a truly immersive experience.

When can you start?

Our Winter adventure in Ustaoset starts on Wednesday, March 26th and run for 5 days until Tuesday, April 1st  (not April Fool) giving you a break of 2 days in between (Saturday & Sunday), to explore the surrounding villages such as Geilo and Finse, or practice what you have learnt the other days.
