Places to go
Norway is large. Far larger than most people realise. We recommend focusing on one region at a time, and coming back to see the rest later. If you only plan one trip to Norway, take your time as you travel; make the journey itself your destination.
-
Fjords
The UNESCO-protected fjords are symbols of the beauty of traditional Norway. Places where time moves in its own pace.
