We gather active and social people to explore known and unknown activities in the outdoors.
GiGass is a student association by and for students at NIH. We are, quite simply, the association for those who enjoy having fun, preferably over time.
We ski, snowboard, longboard, surf, climb, hunt mountain peaks, do bonfires, swim (all year), arrange cool events and excursions.
As a member you'll be first in line to buy tickets for our bigger events and excursions, like our ski trip to Hemsedal called "Hemsegal" and the surf trip to Hoddevika, Stad. You also get access to our popular, free equipment storage and free participation on our weekly activities through Spond.
