World Record at the World’s Largest Hill Before the Trial World Championships in 2011, a new, comprehensive development of Vikersundbakken was completed; the hill became a full-fledged K-195, and declared the world’s largest ski-flying hill. During the Trial World Championships, Johan Remen Evensen flew down to a fantastic new world record of 246.5 meters. In 2011, further development at the hill was done before the World Championships in February, 2012. The expectations for the World Championships in 2012 were sky high, and were met. With more than 60,000 spectators and a record high number of television viewers, this became the all-time high World Championships in Ski-Flying! In February 2015 Peter Prevc is writing history. He is the first human that have jumped 250 meters on ski. But the same weekend Anders Fannemel beet this record with 251,5 meter. What a weekend in Vikersund. We look forward to World Cup 12.-14. February in 2016.

The Cobalt Mines are a part of the Cobalt Works Museum. The Royal Cobalt Works were established i 1776 for the purpose of extracting cobalt ore from the mines. The mining adventure lasted for 120 years. Today we have three different guided tours in the old mines: - Children's Tour, a nice introduction to the mines for the whole family. 1 hour. - Historical Tour, our most popular tour with spectacular attraction. Underground suspension bridge and "floating" glass floor are highlights on this tour where you learn about the exciting history of the mines. 1,5 hour. - Mine Safari, our most spectacular tour! Get all the highlights of the historical tour before we go deeper into the mines. Experience the enormous underground halls, climb ladders and stairs and get the feeling of being a real mine worker. To join this tour you have to be 10 years old. 3 hours. At the Cobalt Mines we have a cafeteria, The Miner's Inn, several exhibitions about the mining and the Theodor Kittelsen Museum.
