Vestfold

Introduction

Vestfold is the smallest county in Norway. However, this does not mean that there is a limit of things to see and do for the visitor or resident. It only means that there is a short distance between adventures and activities, and between the beautiful, the interesting and the exciting. Why spend valuable time in a car, bus or train if you don't have to?

Walking the North Sea Trail

In Vestfold the North Sea Trail follows the numerous coastal paths in the area. Presently, the trail is about 150 km long, but it is growing all the time as new paths are established.

Getting there and public transport

Travelling to Vestfold is easy. The county is served by the airport Sandefjord Lufthavn Torp (www.torp.no) which has regular flights to other parts of Norway and Europe. There is a ferry link between Strømstad in Sweden and Sandefjord, and also between Fredrikshavn in Denmark and Larvik (www.colorline.no).

Where to stay and eat

The North Sea Trail in Vestfold can so far offer you the link to two sites offering accommodation and service, namely the boarding house Eiken Pensjonat and Stallen Galleri & Cafe, both are situated in Horten. The list of recommended places to stay and eat will be updated gradually.
