Regional sports centre

Sogndal has excellent sports accommodation for both indoor and outdoor sports, and can therefore offer a great diversity of activities. However, on a national level Sogndal football and the Fosshaugane stadium are best known. Sogndal has been off and on in the Norwegian premier league for the last twenty years. But local young and promising cross-country and downhill skiers have performed well at both national and international levels.

There is room for both competitive and recreational sports, and Sognahallen is the main sports arena in Sogndal. This is a modern sports hall, which has a full-sized football field, including team handball fields, a 100m athletics track and an 18-meter high climbing wall. In co-operation with the Norwegian State College for Physical Education and Sport Sognahallen established a scientific sports centre. This sports centre consists of a strength training studio, an aerobic hall and a spinning hall. Together with the University College, Sognahallen has good facilities for sports education, rehabilitation and testing. It is therefore easy to combine sports and education either at university or upper secondary school level.
