We are Eco-Lighthouse certified!

By choosing an Eco-Lighthouse certified company, you contribute to a more sustainable future.

Flåmsbrygga Hotel is ECO lighthouse certified and our environmental strategy is to always look for the best possible way of action to operate in the most environmentally friendly way. We follow strict requirements within the areas of work environment, purchasing, energy, transportation, waste, emissions, and esthetics. This for the benefit of our guests, employees, the public authorities and not least the wonderful surroundings the hotel is located in.

We play an important part in the local community by being a safe workplace, and today we have 35 all-year positions. Many of our staff started their career with us as seasonal workers, eventually settling down and start their own families. This is important for our local school, public services within trade, health, as well as and for our visitors who get to experience a living rural community.

We encourage our guest to travel sustainable – enjoy a scenic train ride from Bergen or Oslo before changing to the Flåm Railway. Enjoy a fjord cruise on a fully electric vessel on the Nærøyfjord or travel by express boat from Bergen. A lot of the experiences and attractions in Flåm have little or no environmental and climate impact. The area is ideal for hiking and biking.

Ægir is our own brewery, producing a large selection of handcrafted beer, gin, aquavit, vodka, and mead. Brewed with the freshest mountain water we have won several international prizes for our products. Our culinary philosophy is «Ægir beer in the food, and with the food». Our signature dish Ægir Viking Plank, a five course beer and food menu, show this combination. We work with local farmers and producers, and on our menu you will find fish, local cheeses, vegetables and seasonal berries. We get products from the agricultural school in Aurland, and our neighbour Haugen Farm. We offer vegetarian and vegan dishes on our menus.
