Kongsberg Youth Hostel: A high class hostel in the town centre, yet in quiet surroundings. All rooms are en suite, with TV and wireless connection.
Facilities for meetings and celebrations.
Large, free parking
Kongsberg is the Silver and Skiing Town! It was built on silver mining from 1624, and is surrounded by hills and mountains. Many cultural monuments originating from its wealthy silver mining period. The Numedalslågen River, with its impressive waterfalls, flows through the town centre, and the surrounding countryside is a joy to explore - summer as winter. The town’s character reflects its mining culture and skiing history, which can also be experienced in the Silver Mines, the museums and the magnificent baroque church towering near the youth hostel. 18-holes golf facilities just outside town. The hostel has a large, free parking area.
