School trip to Valldal – activities and tips for a successful trip

Valldal is a popular destination for school trips in Sunnmøre, offering great opportunities for both activities, social time and accommodation. Here, students can be active together through climbing, team competitions and shared meals – all in one place.

Why choose Valldal for a school trip?

Valldal is a great destination for school trips because of:

  • short travel distance from large parts of Sunnmøre and Romsdal
  • safe and well-organized activities
  • plenty of space for both activities and social time
  • climbing and team-building activities that include everyone
  • the option to bring your own food and grill (helps keep costs down)

Many groups choose to combine activities with accommodation and make it a one- or two-day trip.

Climbing in Valldal Aktivitetspark 🌳

The climbing park is the main activity for most school trips to Valldal.

Here, students can challenge themselves in different climbing courses with varying difficulty levels and several zip-lines. The activity offers both a sense of achievement and physical activity, and works well for groups with mixed skill levels.

From the year students turn 12, they can climb independently without adult supervision. This makes it especially suitable for school trips from 7th grade and up.

Team building 🎯

In addition to climbing, we offer organized team activities that work very well for school groups.

Students are divided into teams and given different tasks that require cooperation, effort and a bit of competition. This creates a great atmosphere and provides a social experience where everyone can take part, regardless of physical level.


Food and grilling 🔥

Shared meals are an important part of many school trips.

In the park, we have large wood-fired grills and good seating areas, making it easy for groups to bring their own food. This is both social and practical, and helps keep costs down. Firewood and grilling equipment are included in the price. If needed, you can bring your own cutlery, plates and cups.
