Put on some sturdy footwear, and join us on a hill walk in Knut Hamsun’s footsteps. We will be exploring the landscape that inspired Hamsun's final book, On Overgrown Paths. There are breaks along the way where we stop and listen to the guide reading from the book. The walk also focuses on Hamsun's time in Grimstad, where he lived for over 30 years. You get to hear about the Nobel Prize, Nørholm, the war, the house arrest, and the court case.

Minimum group size is 10 people, and the experience can be booked via Grimstad Tourist Office.
