Trondheim-Bergen

The trip continues to the beautiful Art Nouveau town of Ålesund, the gateway to some of the most famous fjords and natural attractions in the world.

If you take a detour to Åndalsnes before heading to Ålesund, you will also be able to see the majestic Trollheimen mountains. From Ålesund, you head south to Norway’s most visited fjord – the Geirangerfjord, with its ‘Seven sisters’ waterfalls and many small mountain farms perched high up on the mountainside.

From Geiranger, you head north across the Strynefjellet mountain to Stryn where we recommend a trip to Stryn Summer ski centre. Drive south, passing cosy, small villages on your way. At Olden, take a detour up the Briksdalen valley, where you can see the beautiful blue ice of the mighty Briksdalsbreen glacier

The trip continues south alongside the scenic Jølstravatnet lake to Førde. From here, you drive to Lavik, where you cross the Sognefjord, the longest fjord in Norway on the ferry between Oppedal and Lavik.

Drive the last stretch to Bergen, the capital of Western Norway. Finish the tour by exploring the city of Bergen. Don’t miss the old Hanseatic wharf at Bryggen, the Fish Market, the view from Mount Fløyen or Bergen Aquarium when you visit Western Norway’s biggest city!

DETOURS

The Hjørundfjord
On your way to Ålesund, we recommend you to drive alongside the beautiful Hjørundfjord, where you will see some of Norway’s most breathtaking mountains and fjords! From Geiranger, you take the ferry to Hellesylt and drive through the Norangsdalen valley to Leknes. From Leknes you take the ferry to Sæbø and drive to Ørsta and then to Festøy, where a new ferry awaits you. The ferry from Festøy takes you to Solevågen, from where you can drive to Ålesund.

Old Strynefjell Road
The RV 258, Old Strynefjell Road, is one of four Norwegian National Tourist Routes. The contrasts and differences in the scenery between east and west are obvious in the Strynefjell mountains. The landscape bears the marks of the end of the last Ice Age – wide expanses, plains and rounded shapes in the east, and peaks, ravines and precipices in the west.

Nordhordland
We recommend a detour to Nordhordland to experience the coastal culture, the sea air and seagulls galore. Drive north from Bergen in the direction of the Nordhordland bridge. From Knarvik, you continue north to Lygra, where we recommend a visit to the Heathland Centre.
