Norway 2016 |
|
| Norway is a very scenic country, similar to Austria or Switzerland. However, there is one major difference: some valleys are filled with water, called "fjords". We have been on the most scenic fjords of Norway via ship: the Lysefjord, Nærøyfjord and Aurlandsfjord. Hiking led us to the famous Kjerag Boulder and Preikestolen. We visited Stavanger, met close friends in Bergen, and continued with them to the Jostedalsbreen National Park and Oslo. We visited the Austdalsbreen Glacier by kayak, the Nigardsbreen Glacier by foot and used a raft to navigate the Jostedal River. Other attractions had been the Borgund Stave Church, the Viking Ship and Fram Museums in Oslo and the Holmenkollen. |
