Social event details (evening of October 8)
Dinner at Fløien Folkerestaurant at the top of the famous Funicular in Bergen, 320 metres above sea level. The
restaurant, opened in 1925, has been completely restored and is, with its distinctive architecture and prominent
location, without a doubt an attraction. It is a very popular restaurant, not just with tourists, but also among the
locals. The panoramic view over Bergen, the islands and the North Sea is amazing! Sunset and twilight hours is a very
special memory...
