About this experience

Gol Bygdemuseum

High above the valley!

Enjoying fantastic views of Gol, the Skaga farm is situated on the hillside next to the college Hallingdal Folkehøgskole.

In the 1950s, Skaga’s last farmer transferred ownership of the farm to the college, which turned it into a museum. The museum has later acquired additional farm buildings: a bathhouse, a mill, a summer farm, a feed store and a school house.

The flower meadow at Skaga is left untouched until mid-July. Visitors can then take part in traditional hay making with scythes and rakes. Groups can book guided tours outside opening hours.
