Bergen Airport
The gateway to the western fjords
Bergen Airport, Flesland
The country's second city, and a logistical base for Flåm and the Sognefjord.
Bryggen
The old Hanseatic wharf, UNESCO-listed
Bergen is a maritime city backed by seven mountains. Bryggen, the old Hanseatic League wharf listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is best visited early in the morning, before the cruise crowds arrive. Its colorful wooden houses now hold craft workshops and small museums devoted to Hanseatic trade.
The fish market and Fløibanen
The fish market, Bergenhus Fortress and the Fløibanen funicular make for a first introduction to the city; the hike up to Ulriken, the tallest of the seven mountains, delivers a wider view when the weather cooperates — Bergen is known for frequent rain.
Fjord excursion
Flåm, the Nærøyfjord and the Bergen Line
From Bergen, the Bergen Line train reaches Oslo across a mountain plateau — a journey to experience as much as a means of transport. Flåm, at the head of the Aurlandsfjord, is served by a famously steep railway line. The Nærøyfjord, narrow and dramatic, UNESCO-listed together with the Geirangerfjord, forms one of the most spectacular stretches of the western fjords.
Book ahead in high season
Cruises, ferries, buses and trains to the fjords should be booked ahead in high season, but it's worth resisting the pull of the most famous route alone: staying overnight in Aurland or a fjord village often makes for a more beautiful trip than a rushed day return.
