Overview

Delve into the landscape that has inspired myths and legends on this one-week self-guided walking holiday in the Sognefjord, Norway. Begin your trip in Bergen, known as the Gateway to the Fjords, bursting with character, from its medieval timber buildings in Bryggen to its lively fish market. Sailing into the Sognefjord you will soon feel a world away from the bustling city. Walking in Norway is something all keen walkers should experience at least once, and being immersed in the Norwegian way of life as well as its breathtaking landscape is like nothing else. Walking up to 10km each day you will reach the top of Mount Raudmelen and Mount Molden for the ‘finest viewpoint in Sogn’, step into the ice age as you venture to the Nigardsbreen Glacier, and enjoy a relaxing wander through the orchards which line the fjords. Staying in a lovely selection of typically Norwegian 3-star hotels and guest houses on a B&B basis, you can look forward to a warm welcome at the end of each day, and staying in some locations for 2 nights allows you to relax and take in the tranquillity of the villages and utilise the hotel facilities. We are excited just telling you about it! (Please note: early in the season there can be snow/ice on summits and trails, so alternative routes will be provided. In that situation we recommend walking on the alternative routes provided; if you prefer to stick to the original routes it would be entirely at your own risk).
