Fjords from Bergen
Bergen is the gateway to the fjords. The popular Norway in a Nutshell route combines trains, the Flåm Railway and a cruise on the Nærøyfjord, and day cruises head into the Hardangerfjord and Sognefjord.
Data tip: Bergen is famously rainy, so check the forecast and boat times on your phone each morning and keep tickets saved offline for the fjord stretches.
The Bergen Railway and more of Norway
The Bergen Railway crosses the mountains to Oslo in around seven hours, one of the most beautiful train journeys in Europe. Heading north along the coast? See our Ålesund guide.
