The best of mountains and fjords
Experience mountains in Norway.
This is a round trip that combines the best of mountains and fjords in Southern Norway. If you want to experience Norwegian nature and culture in a nutshell, this is the tour for you!
Start the trip in the beautiful region of Vestfold with a side trip to Edvard Munch’s house in Åsgårdstrand.
From there you continue to Drammen, and keep on to highway 35 and highway 7. Now you are en route to the mountains. On your way you should visit Blaafarveverket in Modum, with its exhibitions and the Cobalt mines.
In Hallingdal you are about to experience the mountains. You may perhaps be tempted to try a visit to the Bear Park in Flå?
There is a wide variety of cultural experiences, and you must definitely visit one of the many summer mountain farms. Geilo is the town in the mountains, and here you may enjoy urban attractions while being in close contact with nature. A visit to a SPA clinic will provide you with a lot of new energy.
The Flåm Railway is a great experience, and so is a bike ride along the Rallarvegen. From Flåm you continue to Bergen, the capital of Western Norway, through the beautiful fjords of Hardanger, and further on across Haukelifjell to Rauland.
From the mountains the trip continues to scenic Vrådal, situated by the largest lake in Telemark, Nisser. Make sure to visit Norsk Skieventyr (the Norwegian Ski Adventure) in Morgedal and continue to Skien, where you may visit the childhood home Venstøp of the famous Henrik Ibsen. The Porsgrunn Porselænsfabrik (china factory) still produces the “white gold” – drop by the factory outlet or join a guided tour. Complete your trip with a visit to the idyllic village of Stavern, a gathering point for many artists. Have a nice trip!
