About us

The Eljervik Farm
Øystein Eljervik is an 11th generation farmer at Eljervik.
The farm has long traditions all the way back to the 17th century in his family. The farming is currently focused around sheep and pig, there are 15 buildings to take care of, on about home lands, and large grazing grounds in the mountains. We are currently focusing on farm-tourism as an addition to this. Eljervik is the landowner of the tourist attraction, Langfoss waterfall. The farm is in a fantastic location, with Åkrafjordens best view of the waterfall, which has previously been voted the most beautiful waterfall in the world.
The business idea is to offer accomodation, food and drink by the sea, guiding, local food, sheep-wool products, leather and wood. Real experiences in a natural and unique environment.

Eljervik Gard is a part of Åkrafjorden Landscape Park. It is a high priority for us who live on and run the farm to be able to take part in this strategy, both regarding securing our bread and butter for the future through product- and concept-development, as well as being an attraction in the Landscape Park and Åkrafjorden.

Åkrafjorden Oppleving AS - www.aakrafjorden.no

This has laid the foundations for further investmensts, and the farm is offering its products to Åkrafjorden Oppleving AS, and sell these through a combined strategy and marketing.
