Vikings in Oppdal - a one (wo)man show! Book

Sigbjørn Frengen, Oppdal Safari

You will have a good laugh while you learn abouth the vikings in Oppdal. The guide will show you around the burial ground and tell comedic stories through "communicating" with the dead among other things.

The Vang burial ground in Oppdal has an untold story. Why are there 900 graves gathered in one area when the tradition at that time was to bury people on their farms? How did some of the finest swords made in Europe and pearls from the middle east end up in these burial mounds?

Afterwards you can practice your bow and arrow skills together with the guide! You will go home with a smile on your face wondering more about this mysterious historical time.
