In the well-equipped course forge,with direct connection to Gränsfors Bruk axe factory, a lot of people have over the years gained their first insight into the fascinating world of blacksmithing. Courses are available in different degrees of difficulty and vary in number of days. The maximum number on a course is 10 people.
Below you will find our current courses for 2023. More courses may be added later and courses may be adjusted. We reserve the right to cancel courses with fewer than 6 participants. In that case, we always offer another course in exchange or the money back.
Normally, the teaching takes place in Swedish and English. The minimum age is 16 and you are insured during the course. Customized forging courses can be arranged.
If a course is fully booked, it is fine to put yourself in reserve. In that case, give us an information about the course name and the date of the course, for which you wish to be reserved on, via courses@visitsagaliden.se
