GREEN CITY WALK

Kristiansand boasts of several environmental initiatives, involving industry as well as individual participation. Starting from the pier, your guide will introduce you to renewable energy, the cleaning up of our harbor, and the effort to make Kristiansand port one of the most environmentally friendly in Europe. The tour includes a visit to the recreation island of Odderøya, home to art studios, culture entrepreneurs and the Green Centre. Taste honey produced by city bees, learn about city farming and visit the herb and vegetable garden. Then it’s onwards to a second-hand shop and a seed lending library. See fantastic wall art made from ocean waste and visit the Insect and Bee Hotel. You will also venture into the old part of Kristiansand to study furniture rehabilitation and a volunteer-run popup store providing clothing and house articles. At the food hall, learn how “eat local” has become a mantra in the food and beverage business.
