Nedbergo

We are now approaching Nedbergo Farm. People have been living there for almost 1000 years, on the small sun-drenched ledge at almost 550 metres above sea level. They cultivated the land and kept livestock on pastures, and in the summer, they would move it all further up the mountain to their summer farm. If you take a hike up you will find that the path is both twisty and steep, but after an hour and a half you will find yourself at the top from where you can enjoy the amazing panoramic view over the world heritage fjord. In times gone by, there were also angry, hungry brown bears lurking around these tracks. Once the people of Nedbergo had to quickly escape into the house when a bear unexpectantly came for an evening visit, but they didn’t have time to secure their livestock and horse. The newly shod horse and the bear got into a big fight and the family were certain that their horse was lost. But to their surprise, when they looked out of the window the next morning, they saw the bear lying there dead and beaten. The horse was wearing winter shoes and the sharp studs had ripped the bear to pieces. On the other side of the fjord, you can see Stokko.
