After a long winter in the barn, Norwegian sheep are released in the mountains by the end of spring. Accompanied by numerous lambs, they roam freely around until the end of August. Then it’s time to gather them again before the first snow comes. When hiking together with the local sheep herder you get to know everything about sheep whilst enjoying the beautiful mountain pastures at the same time.
