Sustainable destination - Visit Drøbak & Oscarsborg
We are currently working on branding Frogn as a sustainable destination, a national and recognized destination branding scheme that gives a stamp of quality to destinations that have committed to sustainable development.
Innovation Norway: Sustainable Destination
One of the main focus areas for Visit Drøbak & Oscarsborg in the future is to work on sustainable tourism.
Addressing sustainability challenges in tourism requires attention to both the overall picture and the details of a destination.
Innovation Norway's label for Sustainable Destinations is a management system to ensure that destinations work as sustainably as possible.
Visit Greater Oslo, in collaboration with Frogn municipality, has been granted NOK 800,000 from Innovation Norway to work on the "Sustainable destination label". The process leading up to initial marking takes approx. two years and contains various investigations, plans and measures.
Frogn municipality, Visit Drøbak & Oscarsborg work together with Visit Greater Oslo and the tourism industry in the municipality to become a sustainable municipality and destination. At the beginning of September 2024, the work started and the steering group had its first meeting.
Environmental certification "Eco Lighthouse" for the town hall
The "Sustainable Destination" standard asks whether the municipal administration in the municipality being applied for is environmentally certified. In March 2024 the town hall of Frogn was certified as a Eco Lighthouse.

An attractive destination should also be a good place to live. That's why we conducted a citizen survey where we wanted to hear how tourism affects you as a resident of Frogn municipality.

The survey was concluded on 31 January 2025.
