How to get there
Important info: Hovden airport will be closed for four weeks over the summer – meaning you will need to fly to Ålesund (yes, there will be boat transport to Bjørke!). If you’ve already booked a flight please contact Widerøe for refunds (you will not want to fly to Sandane if they suggest that – if so they’ll have to make sure they get you to Bjørke).
Call/email/message John Haddal Mork on +47 48 03 70 99 / john.h.mork@gmail.com if you have any questions!
