Hiking

Thanks to the short distances between the mountains and fjords, you will find many fascinating areas for walking in the region. You can walk in the mountains, along rivers and lakes, through valleys, along sea-green fjords and in leafy orchards.

If you want to experience the diversity of glaciers, mountains and fjords, make sure you do not miss the “10 Iconic Walks” hiking trips.

Cycling

The Fjell & Fjord region is a paradise for those who want a cycling holiday. There is a multitude of prepared trails and roads for all cycling levels and types – touring, terrain and downhill. Cycling from the high mountains through panoramic views to the majestic fjords is an adventure and an unforgettable experience.

The scenic Rallarvegen (the Navvies’ Road) , that goes from the vast mountain plateau of Hardangervidda down to Flåm and the Aurlandsfjord, is one of the most appreciated bike routes in Norway.
