Rooms and Facilities

Three boarding schools

At Bakketun Folkehøgskole we have three boarding schools, the 1915-built, the 1960-built and the 2014-built. These are again divided into smaller units with space for 8-14 students.

In the housing units, you share a living room, dormitory kitchen and bathroom. That means a lot of time together in the living room for cuddling, card games, chatting and maybe some small arguments too. You become like a small family with a nice mix of both boys and girls, people from different places and with different interests.

Most people want to share a room with someone they don't know before, which can be a bit exciting at first, but usually it becomes very pleasant over time.
