In an exciting, informative, and interactive way, the exhibition demonstrates how glaciers and the climate have both changed throughout history. The exhibition also shows how glaciers have formed the landscape and what it is like living next to a glacier and using its natural resources. In our screening room we show a picture-based film that takes you on a journey beneath, on, and around Jostedalsbreen throughout the various seasons. A visit to Breheimsenteret will certainly be an informative experience!

If you don’t have time to sit down in our restaurant, we offer packed lunches that you can take with you on your trip. Contact us and we’ll take care of it! We offer:

• Standard lunch (NOK 135): a homemade spelt roll with ham and cheese, an apple, and a 0.5 l bottle of water.
• Deluxe lunch (NOK 175): a homemade spelt roll with salmon and rocket, an apple, chocolate, and a 0.5 l bottle of water.

The lunch restaurant has the capacity to receive both small and large groups. Please contact us if you are interested in a separate group menu.

We serve lunch dishes, cakes, and coffee and offer guided presentations of our exhibition and the Nigardsbredalen valley. Our nature guide will talk about topics such as glaciers and the climate, local history and legends of the Black Death, nearby tourist attractions, and the Jostedalsbreen and Breheimen National Parks. We have experience with hosting events such as weddings, confirmations, baptisms, and anniversaries. We adapt the programme to your group, so please contact us to hear what we can offer.

In our shop you can purchase mementos from your trip to Jostedalen. We sell souvenirs, local products, food, books, and maps. Take a look! Our food products include spekepølse (smoked sausage) from Brelam, a local company that also makes fenalår (cured leg of lamb), pinnekjøt (cured lamb ribs), and salta kjøt (salted meat). The meat is from animals that have grazed in the Nigardsbredalen valley and in the highlands west of the glacier. If you need a warm jacket, or a wool hat or gloves for your trip, you will find them for sale in our shop.
