Hotels Taking Steps Towards Sustainability in Lom

Villa Vågå is part of Classic Norway Hotels, a chain that is Miljøfyrtårn (Eco-Lighthouse) certified. This certification ensures the hotel meets strict requirements across various environmental areas, including climate impact, waste management, energy consumption, and procurement. The chain is committed to continuous improvement and making sustainable choices at every level of its business.

Hindsæter operates with a regenerative and environmental philosophy, focusing on a kitchen based on seasonal, very local produce from Jotunheimen, and a strict 'nose to tail' approach to meat, including reindeer sourced within a 20km radius. The hotel's energy needs are covered by its own power station, demonstrating energy independence. It also prioritizes extensive waste sorting, uses salvaged and local materials for refurbishments, and encourages guests to minimize laundry.
