Geilo as a Sustainable Travel Destination
Geilo was labeled as a Sustainable Travel Destination for the first time in 2016, as one of the first destinations in Norway. The label Sustainable Travel Destination is a quality mark for destinations that work systematically for a more sustainable society.
Visit Geilo and Hol municipality entered into a partnership agreement in 2016, which is renewed every four years. This agreement has an overarching goal of ensuring the long-term development of Hol municipality as a travel destination
This does not mean that Geilo is 100 per cent sustainable in all respects, but that as a destination we have committed ourselves to working long-term for a more responsible and sustainable development. For us, sustainability is about balancing good guest experiences, local value creation, taking care of our nature, and make Geilo and Hol municipality a good place to live and grow up for our children. We do this through knowledge, dialogue and interaction.
