Norwegian Wild Salmon Center in Lærdal gives you the story about the life of the Atlantic wild salmon. You can observe living salmon and sea trout in our observatory, (aquarium) so close that you can almost touch the powerful creature! Learn the difference between a sea trout and a salmon, and how the sports fishing era started in the 1850's in Norway. Several films included.

Explore the Norwegian Nature Center - an exciting experience center for Norwegian nature, climate and environment. The center is located on the most popular route between Bergen and Oslo, in Øvre Eidfjord along the national tourist road Rv 7, near the Hardangerfjorden, Måbødal and Vøringsfossen at the foot of the Hardangervidda. We made it our task to bring about an intimate meeting of modern man and nature. The Norwegian Nature Centre is an experience centre for the whole family, featuring lively exhibitions, hands-on activities and visual effects. Today, the centre is one of the leading centres of its kind, featuring state-of-the-art technological effects and innovative teaching technologies. Join us on a spectacular journey through fjords and mountain landscapes and mighty waterfalls in our new panoramic film. Our exhibitions are available in 13 different languages.

Imagine a mix of your favorite playground, a laboratory, a show, and a museum. By doing that you get a small impression of what a science center is. We also offer our own restaurant/cafè if you need a break.
