Hundreds of thousands of trees and billions of flowers. The trees normally blossom in May, a time which is particularly beautiful by the Hardangerfjord and the Sognefjord.

2. The waterfalls have their biggest flow

3. You can relax beside solveggen
Aaaah!
Nothing is better than relaxing in a sheltered spot with your favourite drink as the sun caresses your face.
In Norway, every cabin has a wall for lounging in the sun, called solveggen (the "sun wall").
