A taste of Hardanger

 

 

A taste of Hardanger
Travelling means tasting something new. In Kvam you can get traditional krotakaker and lefser, goat meat, potato dumplings called komle, home made apple pies, lamb from Hardanger, apple juice and dangerously tasty hard cider. You can dine at a local farm restaurant, visit a goat cheese factory or get a tour of a fruit farm. During summer and autumn, this area is full of tasty fruit. You may come when the fruit trees are blossoming, when the strawberries and cherries are ripe or when there are apples and plums on the trees. In the autumn we have our own fruit and cider festival, of course. You won’t leave Kvam hungry!
