Video: If it's goat-stroking time, this must be Undredal

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

We visited a goats' cheese factory in Undredal, lunching on pancakes stuffed with tangy, unctuous slices of it, followed by waffles with sour cream and cloudberry jam.

Could we meet the goats (of which there are 300 to 80 people)? Not just then, because they were up in the mountains above the town - they're taken out in April or May and spend the summer up there.

But we were promised we'd catch a glimpse of them as we drove out to our next destination. Indeed we did - and it turned out the goats wanted more than just a glimpse of us...

Undredal is on Aurlandsfjord, and can be reached on the Gudsvangen-Flam ferry - which puts it along the route of the hugely popular Norway in a Nutshell tour.

You'll also find the smallest stave church in Northern Europe here. It has just 40 seats, and is still in use today.
