Eat local food with our members and partners

Hurran spiseri is a gem of an eatery on Frøya. The restaurant’s premises invite you to lower your shoulders, and the outdoor seating facing the yard is a green oasis in summer. The eatery focuses on seasonal and local ingredients, and they juice, pickle and further refine a number of the ingredients they use in their menu. You will of course find products from Hurran wild sheep on the menu, in addition to ingredients from other local food and drink producers in Hitra and Frøya.

Hotell Frøya og Hjorten Hotell

At Hotel Frøya, they have one of Norway’s best breakfasts, which contains a large amount of local food from our producers. On the menu in the hotel’s restaurants you will always find local ingredients from Hitra and Frøya.


Accommodation

We recommend staying overnight at our partner hotels: Hotell Frøya, or Hjorten Hotell at Hitra.


Here you will always find food from our producers on the menu or at the breakfast buffet!

Travel to The Islands Hitra and Frøya

The island kingdom of Hitra and Frøya is located on the coast of Trøndelag. The nearest airport is Trondheim – Værnes. This is 2 hours and 8 minutes by car to Fillan, which is the center of Hitra, and 2 hours and 31 minutes to Sistranda, which is the center of Frøya. This is a road with many tunnels and few alternative routes. So it may be a good idea to calculate extra time if you have to catch a flight.

Car

If you are going on a local food tour, we recommend that you have your own car. This is the best way to experience the islands. If you take the road here, you will follow Lakseveien Fv714 (the salmon road). Hitra can be reached from the mainland with a tunnel under the sea and Frøya with a tunnel from Hitra.

Public transport

You can take both an express boat and a bus to Hitra. The timetable for both can be found at www.atb.no

Of our producers, you can only visit DalPro by bus, as it is located along the main road between Hitra and Frøya.
