AAK Safety's training facility in Larvik/Steinsholt is idyllically situated by the Numedalslågen river in the northern part of Larvik municipality, 30 km northeast of Skien and Larvik town centers, and approximately 100 km southwest of Oslo.
Our training facility at Steinsholt boasts excellent spaces for both practical training and theory.
