About Food Trails Gudbrandsdalen

Local food and drink experiences are integral to our cultural heritage. Exotic, traditional, unique, and exciting – all at the same time!

In Gudbrandsdalen, visitors are served artisan cuisine – prepared from the heart through generations. Flavours are authentic and pure. The fresh air and clean water leave a taste reminiscent of the mountains.

Sustainable production is important and comes naturally to us, the way it has for generations. Matrute Gudbrandsdal is a network of restaurants committed to safeguarding the cultural identity of food. Local food production is crucial in preserving our cultural heritage, and creates value in the region.
