Posters are recommended to be posted early in the Symposium, so that discussions can take place on an individual basis.
The boat trip from Os near Bergen to Rosendal takes about two hours and takes us through the beautiful area of the Hardanger Fjord. The transport from the Bergen city and the Bergen Airport to Os will be arranged. A chartered bus is planned from one or both of the places, depending on the final travel arrangements of all the participants.
The Rosendal Barony is wedged into beautiful mountains, which might tempt many of us to mountain hikes. Those who might feel excited about this possibility are advised to bring suitable shoes and clothing. The Rosendal area is close (20 km) to the famous glacier Folgefonn, but the trips to its top require skis and are not planned during the Symposium. However, we shall visit the glacier's lowest point on our Symposium Excursion on Sunday.
