Hunting and fishing - part of our cultural inheritance

Many people in Norway are interested in the outdoor life. Physical activity in clean, untouched nature is a tonic for many, whether it is a trip in the mountains, on the plains or through the coastal landscape.

Hunting and fishing - part of our cultural inheritance
Interest in, and the desire to take part in, hunting and fishing is fundamental for Norwegians. From being an essential activity to put food on the table, hunting and fishing have become popular leisure activities. Food prepared from game and self-caught fish have a flavour that is unsurpassed. The experience of nature through hunting and fishing gives a marvellous release from the stress of everyday life for many men and women. Each year more and more women take their hunting certificate in order to be able to hunt actively.
