2026 Voss Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in August)

Although the official website offers packages, my friends and I calculated that following their suggested route and booking everything ourselves would be cheaper. So, we decided to go for a DIY trip. After completing the journey, we found it quite manageable (in terms of preparation, navigation, etc.), so it’s definitely worth considering. While some people manage to visit all these places in just one or two days, we preferred a more relaxed pace, spreading it out over four days and three nights. Slowing down really made the trip more enjoyable. Our itinerary: oslo → myrdal (one night) → flam → gudvangen → voss (one night) → bergen (one night) → oslo Transportation: oslo → myrdal: train myrdal → flam: train (Spectacular views! The train even stops for a close-up view of a waterfall.) flam → gudvangen: cruise (Traveling through the fjords—absolutely stunning!) gudvangen → voss: bus (You can find the bus stop on Google Maps. Just hop on and pay with your card.) voss → bergen: train bergen → oslo: train Total transportation costs: approximately $2000-$2100. Accommodation: flam: Flåm Youth Hostel (good) voss: Scandic Voss (Highly recommended! Super convenient, right next to the train station, and the breakfast is delicious.) bergen: Citybox (good) Additional Information: 1. Voss has a cable car (Voss Gondol). Unfortunately, we didn’t do much research beforehand and found out it closes at 3 or 3:30 PM and opens at 9 AM the next day. We arrived too late and didn’t want to wake up early the next morning, so we missed it. There’s a swing at the top that looks pretty fun. 2. Bergen also has a cable car (Fløyen). It’s reasonably priced, around 200 NOK or less. While there isn’t much to explore at the top, the view is great—you can overlook the entire city. Definitely worth a visit! Many locals use this area for hiking. If you don’t want to pay for the cable car, you can hike up, but it will take longer. 3. Norwegian restaurants are honestly not recommended. Even for someone with low expectations for food, I found them overpriced and not tasty. One meal is enough for the experience. Instead, I recommend visiting local supermarkets, where you can find affordable and delicious salmon sashimi—highly recommended. 4. Weather significantly impacts the scenery and overall experience. Different weather conditions create different atmospheres, but if you’re particular about it, check the forecast before heading out (though weather can be unpredictable). Regardless, just enjoy the trip when you’re there! :>

#Cable car The Voss cable car station is on the other side of the train station. Just follow the signs along the way. The cable car will only open until 5:00pm. It is not recommended to go there after 4:00pm as the staff may close it early. Taking the cable car to overlook the Vangsvatnet Lake is amazing, it is really beautiful. As the car slowly goes up, the scenery becomes more and more open. You can see the whole picture of Voss, just like a painting. No wonder Norway is so expensive, and there are many people willing to spend money to see the natural beauty of Norway. #100TravelWays #NorwayTravel #voss #NaturalBeauty #NorthernEurope

#tripcom5th Anniversary Oppheimsee is a lake located in the north of Voss, Westland County, Norway, about 3 km east of Venijen. The lake covers an area of ​​3.55 square kilometers. European highway E16 runs along the north side of the lake, passing by Opheim Church in the small village of Opheim, from which the lake gets its name. The village of Vastrondi is located on the southern shore of the lake. Although it was cloudy when we drove past here, we were still attracted by the beautiful scenery and stopped to sightsee. As you can imagine, if you come here on a sunny day with direct sunlight, it will look much more beautiful visually. #OverseasTravel #NorwayTravel #NorwayTourism #NorwayScenery #Lake #Mountain #Voss #norway #oppheimsvatnet

[Norway in a Nutshell] 從Bergen到達Voss後,停留的時間只有大半個小時,但其實Voss是個很美很美的地方,從火車站走到巴士站距離並不遠,建議走到Vangsvatnet湖邊,7.7平方公里的湖面異常平靜,湛藍的天空和遠方的披雪山巒都映照在鏡子上。 #norway #voss #挪威 #beyondborders #couplestrip

We picked Voss for our first ever skydive. We cannot think of a better place to do it. Voss is a small outdoor adventure town in western Norway, about 90 minutes from Bergen by train. Skydive Voss operates from the airfield and offers tandem jumps for around £200-250 per person, which puts it at the higher end of skydiving prices globally but entirely reasonable for Norway. The jump itself: tha exits the aircraft at 15,000 feet. The freefall lasts about 60 seconds at approximately 200km/h. Then the parachute deploys and tha floats for about 5 minutes over a landscape of Norwegian fjords, mountains, and the glacial lake below. On a clear day the views during the parachute descent are among the most spectacular tha will ever see from any angle. The briefing takes about 30 minutes. The actual jump preparation is thorough without being terrifying (until tha is sitting on the edge of the aircraft door, at which point terrifying is accurate). First time advice: book the video package. The cost feels unnecessary right up until tha watches the footage back. Then it feels entirely justified. Getting there: train from Bergen to Voss (about £15 each way), then a short taxi or walk to the airfield. Bergen makes an excellent base for a day trip.

Ladies, I really have to recommend this Nordic hidden gem city❗️ In July, Bergen has nearly 19 hours of daylight☀️ The sky brightens at 4 AM and only gets dark around 11 PM. It feels like you get two days in one—totally worth it! 🔜 First, how to get to the city center When you exit Bergen Flesland Airport, don’t waste time lining up for a taxi (starting fare is 330 NOK one way, quite expensive) ✅ Tested best option: take the Bybanen light rail line 1 directly Follow the yellow signs from the terminal, take the escalator down to the platform 🎫 Ticket costs 44 NOK per person. The full trip to Byparken terminal takes about 45 minutes Trains run every 15 minutes, and the ride offers street views—much more comfortable than the bus 💡 Pro tip: download the Skyss app in advance to buy tickets easily and avoid lines at the machines 🏠 Where to stay: firsthand experience ⛰️ Stayed in a small alley behind Bryggen Wharf. Walk about 100 meters from the row of colorful houses, turn on the cobblestone street, and you’re there—quiet yet central ⛰️ The room has a full slanted roof skylight plus large side windows. Lying in bed at midnight, you can still see the dusk sky not fully dark, and gentle morning light wakes you at 4 AM ⛰️ The balcony faces the inner harbor, with private sailboats’ masts and a distant sea bridge in view. Holding a coffee at dusk watching boats come and go is addictive 🗺️ Three-day slow travel itinerary (tested and reliable) “Day 1 · Old town walking day” Morning: Bryggen Wharf → Hanseatic Museum Afternoon: Fløibanen funicular → hike at the top Evening: Dinner at the fish market Fisketorget Key info about the Fløibanen funicular👇 📍 Starts right next to the fish market, 150 meters on foot 🎫 Round-trip ticket 190 NOK (buy at self-service machine), 200 NOK at the counter—don’t overpay ⏰ Summer hours Mon–Fri 7:30 AM–11 PM, weekends 8 AM–11 PM 🔥 Sit in the front row! No obstructions, perfect for photos The summit is 320 meters high, with a viewing platform overlooking Bergen harbor, colorful rooftops, and distant fjords If you’re fit, buy a one-way ticket up and hike down in about 40 minutes through mossy forest with incredibly fresh air “Day 2 · Fjord expedition day” Follow the classic “Norway in miniature” route, but don’t buy the full package ticket❌ 📢 The 2026 package ticket price has risen to 2,510 NOK (about 1,600+ CNY) Tested saving about 400 NOK by buying segments separately, here’s how👇 ① Buy Bergen → Myrdal train ticket in advance on Vy’s website ② Book the Flåmsbana train (Myrdal → Flåm) separately ③ Book the fjord cruise from Flåm → Gudvangen separately ④ Buy the bus ticket from Gudvangen → Voss on site ⑤ Buy the Voss → Bergen train ticket on Vy’s website The Flåmsbana train is one of the most beautiful rail routes in the world, no joke 20 km with an 863-meter elevation drop, waterfalls and canyons bombard your eyes along the way It stops for 5 minutes at Kjosfossen waterfall for photos, with mist spraying your face The Sognefjord cruise lasts about 2 hours It’s the world’s longest and deepest fjord, 240 km long and 1,308 meters deep Steep cliffs rise vertically on both sides, with colorful wooden houses occasionally visible on the cliffs Recommended to sit on the deck—the sea breeze and views are the right way to enjoy it “Day 3 · In-depth exploration day” Morning: Ulriken cable car (Bergen’s highest peak at 643 meters) Afternoon: Gamle Bergen open-air museum Evening: Walk on Nordnes peninsula to watch the sunset Ulriken is less known, with half the tourists of Fløibanen The summit offers a wider view, seeing both Bergen city and the Hardangerfjord direction In July, there’s still some snow on the peak, adding a natural filter to your photos 💰 Cost reference (per person/day) Transport: light rail 44 + funicular 190 ≈ 234 NOK Meals: simple meal at fish market 200–300 NOK, main course at regular restaurant 250–400 NOK Admission: Hanseatic Museum 120 NOK, Gamle Bergen Museum 150 NOK Norway’s prices are like this—be prepared🫠 ⚠️ Practical tips to avoid pitfalls ① Bergen rains 270 days a year! July is no exception. A waterproof jacket is essential ② Umbrellas don’t work—the wind flips them instantly. A hooded rain jacket is the best choice ③ Seafood at the fish market is fresh but expensive. For a full meal, try the indoor fish market nearby for friendlier prices ④ Most museums close between 4 PM and 5 PM, so don’t plan visits too late ⑤ Almost everyone in Norway speaks English fluently, so communication is easy ⑥ Summer is peak season. Book Flåmsbana and fjord cruises in advance—tickets are unlikely to be available on site ⑦ The city center is small, and all attractions are walkable. No need to buy day passes for transport Honestly, Bergen is one of those cities you think “it’s just a small town” before visiting, but after going, you’ll want to come back The July light is perfect for photos—every shot looks like a masterpiece Fjords + colorful wooden houses + harbor + mossy forest—there’s no other place like it in the world

Before coming to Norway, I imagined a thousand different kinds of summers, but the fjord area around Bergen in July completely healed me🌿 First, a surprising fact— Bergen has nearly 19 hours of daylight in summer⏰ Sunrise is at 4 AM, sunset close to 11 PM After a full day of exploring outside, you return to your lodging and it’s still bright out, completely messing with your sense of time 🚗 Transportation guide | How to get to the fjord area Most people do a day trip loop starting from Bergen, but I strongly recommend staying one night by the fjord❗️The experience doubles How to get from Bergen to Flåm👇 🚂 Train: Depart from Bergen train station, transfer at Voss, then switch to the Flåm train at Myrdal. The whole trip takes about 3 hours 💰 Book tickets early on the Vy website. Bergen to Myrdal costs about 300–500 NOK, cheaper the earlier you book 🚌 You can also take a long-distance bus via Voss to Flåm, but the train offers much better scenery ⚠️ Norway Railways summer 2026 schedule will change The Bergen Line (Bergensbanen) runs about 5–6 times daily, with the earliest train at 6:07 AM It’s best to take an early train so you have time for a boat tour in Flåm in the afternoon 🏡 About staying by the fjord ⛰️ The cabin is located a 10-minute walk east from Flåm harbor, halfway up the mountain, with only three or four neighboring houses. It’s so quiet you can only hear the waterfall ⛰️ The whole building is a traditional Norwegian red wooden cabin. When you open the door, the scent of natural wood fills the air. The living room has windows on three sides, with the fjord water stretching out right before your eyes ⛰️ The west-facing terrace overlooks the fjord, furnished with two wooden chairs and a small table. Sitting there at dusk watching the light soften bit by bit, with the occasional cruise ship slowly passing in the distance, it’s deeply healing 📋 Two-day deep fjord itinerary “Day 1 · Flåm + Nærøyfjord” Morning: Arrive in Flåm → Flåm train (Flåmsbana) Afternoon: Nærøyfjord boat tour Evening: Stroll around Flåm town The Flåm train deserves special praise🔥 It’s 20 km long, descending from 867 meters at Myrdal down to sea level at Flåm With a gradient of 5.5%, it’s one of the steepest standard gauge railways in the world Along the way you’ll see: → Canyons hundreds of meters deep → Farm ruins hanging on cliffs → Kjosfossen waterfall—massive water flow with mist that can reach the train windows → Several curves where you can see the entire fjord reflected in the valley The train ride takes about 1 hour, but it feels like a century’s worth of sights 💡 Photo tip: Sit on the right side facing the direction of travel for the best view of the waterfall 🎫 Tickets cost about 520 NOK round trip. Book seats early on the official website The Nærøyfjord boat tour departs from Flåm to Gudvangen This fjord section is a UNESCO World Heritage site Cliffs on both sides reach up to 1,700 meters, and the narrowest waterway is only 250 meters wide The boat ride takes about 2 hours, passing a few tiny villages with just a handful of residents It’s very windy on deck but exhilarating. Bundle up and enjoy the view 🎫 Boat tickets cost about 560 NOK per person. Afternoon departures are recommended From Gudvangen, you can take a bus over the mountain back to Voss (about 45 minutes, 150 NOK) “Day 2 · Voss + alpine lakes” Morning: Voss town → Vangsvatnet lake Afternoon: Bavallstunet mountain viewpoint Evening: Train back to Bergen Voss is a seriously underrated transfer town With lake and mountain views plus distant snow-capped peaks, just sitting on a bench by the lake and zoning out is a top-tier experience In July, you can kayak on Vangsvatnet lake. There’s a rental spot on the shore for 200 NOK per hour Bavallstunet requires a cable car ride up the mountain. The summit has a 360-degree viewpoint where you can see seven valleys converging in a spectacular scene 💰 Estimated per-person cost for two days 🚂 Train (Bergen↔Myrdal↔Voss↔Bergen): about 900 NOK 🚂 Flåm train: 520 NOK 🚢 Nærøyfjord boat tour: 560 NOK 🚌 Gudvangen→Voss bus: 150 NOK 🏡 Accommodation: about 1,200–1,800 NOK per night (peak summer rates) 🍽️ Food: about 600–800 NOK for two days Total roughly 3,500–4,500 NOK (about CNY 2,300–2,900) 🧳 Luggage and gear tips ① The fjord area is 3–5 degrees colder than Bergen city. Bring a fleece jacket ② The boat deck is very windy. A scarf or neck gaiter is a lifesaver ③ Flåm town has only one supermarket and two or three restaurants. Bring snacks in advance ④ Food on the train’s dining car is expensive and limited. It’s best to bring your own ⑤ Norwegian train tickets are cheaper the earlier you buy. Last-minute purchases can cost twice as much ⑥ Fjord boat tours run 3–4 times daily in July and August but often sell out. Book early on the official website ⑦ The last boat from Flåm to Gudvangen leaves around 6:30 PM. If you miss it, you’ll need to stay another night in Flåm 🌊 Final thoughts The night I stayed by the fjord, it was past 10 PM and still not fully dark The water was like a giant mirror, reflecting the shapes of mountains and clouds Occasionally, a boat horn sounded in the distance, then everything fell silent I woke naturally at 5 AM the next morning and opened the curtains to see a thin mist floating over the fjord That kind of quiet isn’t empty—it’s filled to the brim with nature’s presence If you’re tired of never having enough time in the city, stay one night by the fjord near Bergen Nineteen hours of daylight give you plenty of time to slowly clear your mind

A must-visit hidden gem in Nordic summers! 🌟 📍Voss, Norway Ah, my first trip to Norway and I was blown away by this small town! Voss is basically the perfect example of a Nordic summer destination~💫 Located in western Norway, Voss offers stunning fjord views and crystal-clear lakes! Every photo looks like wallpaper material~📸 Recommended spots to visit: ✅ Lakeside pier: see the reflection of snow-capped mountains ✅ Town church: classic Nordic architecture ✅ Fjord viewpoint: the panoramic fjord view is breathtaking! 🏠 Accommodation recommendation: The lakeside cabins have such a Nordic vibe! Open your window in the morning to see the lake mist 🌫️ 🍽️ Food recommendation: Don’t miss the local specialty salmon~ Any restaurant by the fjord is amazing! Tips: July and August are the best travel months! Photos look stunning straight out of the camera 💕 Plan to stay at least 2 days~

⏳Recommended Duration: 3-4 days (Essentials) / 5-6 days (In-depth) 💡Why Visit: People say Norway is more beautiful in summer, but autumn brings a deeper richness—the forests turn from green to gold, then caramel.

If Copenhagen is a fairy tale and Oslo is a melodic poem, then the journey ahead is an epic written by nature itself. "Norway in a Nutshell" is a classic route that many consider a once-in-a-lifetime must-do, and we finally welcomed the most anticipated day of our entire Nordic trip. At 7:00 AM, the sky was still a pale, grayish blue. After breakfast, we wheeled our luggage into Oslo Central Station to catch the train to Myrdal. On the platform, people waited quietly. There were no massive crowds, no urgent overhead announcements—just the sound of the train gliding to a halt right on schedule. As the train pulled out of Oslo, the scenery outside our window began to shift. The flat cityscape was soon replaced by dense forests, followed by expanses of frozen lakes. The further west we traveled, the higher the elevation climbed, and the thicker the snow became. Soon, the entire world was reduced to dark pine trees, pristine snowfields, and the occasional red wooden cabin. Those pops of bright red were particularly striking against the pure white backdrop, creating a scene that felt quintessentially Norwegian. Along the way, I could hardly bear to blink. Because every passing minute framed a completely different picture outside the window. One moment, the train would plunge into a pitch-black tunnel, only to emerge into a breathtaking, wide-open vista the next. Sometimes, we crawled along the edge of a sheer gorge with a seemingly bottomless river valley below. Other times, snow-capped peaks stood quietly in the distance, glistening silver under the sun. It turns out that the train ride itself is a journey to be savored. Around noon, we arrived at Myrdal Station, sitting at an elevation of over 800 meters. There were no bustling shops or frantic crowds here—just a few train tracks crisscrossing amid the snowy peaks. A few minutes later, the real star of the day slowly pulled into the station. The red-and-green Flåm Railway (Flåmsbana). Spanning just 20 kilometers, this route is hailed as one of the world's most beautiful mountain railways and ranks among the steepest standard-gauge tracks on the globe. The train slowly began to move. Unlike the swift long-distance train we had just been on, it rolled at a leisurely pace, as if intentionally giving us time to soak in every inch of the view. Steep rock faces began to rise outside the window. Meltwater streams rushed violently down the slopes, while waterfalls cascaded from cliffs hundreds of meters high, their mist catching the sunlight to form delicate rainbows. The train descended steadily through the valley. In just one short hour, we transitioned from a snow-blanketed wonderland to a small village tucked beside a fjord. The most unforgettable moment of the ride was the Kjosfossen waterfall. The train made a special stop for several minutes, allowing all passengers to step out onto the viewing platform. The massive falls roared down the cliffside, the deafening sound echoing through the valley as icy mist sprayed our faces. Just as everyone was busy snapping photos, ethereal music drifted from the mountainside, and a woman in a red dress appeared near the rushing water, dancing gracefully. She was Huldra—a forest spirit from Norse mythology. This brief, enchanting performance added a layer of mystical allure to the snowy mountains. When the train chugged forward again, people kept looking back, half-hoping the spirit would reappear. In the afternoon, we arrived in Flåm. This tiny village of just a few hundred residents sits snugly beside Aurlandsfjord, a branch of the Sognefjord, which is the longest and deepest fjord in the world. No skyscrapers. No traffic. Just snowy peaks, the fjord, and small boats quietly bobbing in the harbor. The village was so peaceful that the only sound was the gentle lapping of waves against the shore. Instead of rushing to our next stop, we took our time strolling by the harbor. The fjord before us was as smooth as glass, perfectly reflecting the towering, hundreds-of-meters-high cliffs on either side. The peaks were still capped with heavy snow, yet the foothills were wrapped in lush green forests. It felt as though all four seasons were captured in a single painting. That night, we stayed in a small wooden cabin right by the water. As the sun slowly set, the sky faded from pale blue to cotton-candy pink, and finally to a deep violet. There was no city neon—only a sky blanketed in stars. Opening the window, the crisp, icy air carried the briny scent of the fjord right to my face. The faint cry of a seabird echoed in the distance. In that moment, time seemed to stand still. The next morning, we boarded a ferry, officially setting sail into the world's most stunning fjords. The boat slowly pulled away from the dock. The towering cliffs on either side drew closer, with some sections rising almost vertically for nearly a thousand meters. Waterfalls spilled from the peaks, hanging like threads of silver against the rock faces. Occasionally, we’d spot a solitary wooden cabin clinging to the steep slopes, leaving us to wonder who could possibly live in such magnificent isolation. The ferry navigated through Aurlandsfjord and into the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Nærøyfjord. At its narrowest point, the shores were only a few hundred meters apart. Looking up, the sheer mountains nearly swallowed the entire sky. This wasn't an ocean. It felt more like a colossal valley carved out by ancient glaciers. Tens of thousands of years ago, glaciers thousands of meters thick slowly pushed their way through, carving out the awe-inspiring fjord landscapes we see today. Now, humans are merely passing travelers in their wake. After docking in Gudvangen, we transferred to a bus. The bus climbed steadily up winding mountain roads, treating us to a relentless reel of waterfalls, lakes, and snow-capped peaks. The driver navigated the twists with expert precision; every turn felt like flipping to a brand-new postcard. Before long, we arrived in Voss, where we caught a train heading for Bergen. As the sun began to dip below the horizon, the train wove through forests and past glassy lakes. In the distance, small towns began to glow with warm lights, signaling that our journey was nearing its end. By evening, we finally pulled into Norway’s second-largest city: Bergen. Stepping out of the station, we were immediately greeted by the salty tang of the ocean breeze. Fishing boats were docked in the harbor, and the iconic wooden houses of Bryggen stood in neat rows. Bathed in the warm yellow glow of the streetlamps, the timber structures made it feel as though we’d stepped straight into a medieval Hanseatic port. After two days of trains, ferries, buses, and railways, we had finally completed what is widely celebrated as the most beautiful journey in the world. Many people describe "Norway in a Nutshell" as a transit route. But to me, it felt far more like an intimate dialogue with nature. No man-made structure could ever rival the grandeur of those snowy peaks; no painter could truly capture the profound depths of the fjords; and no photograph could ever replicate the sheer awe of standing on that deck, watching the rushing waterfalls, the mirrored mountains, and the clouds drifting across the summits. To this day, I still remember that pristine, almost surreal landscape. And I finally understand why people say: "If you only visit Norway once in your lifetime, you have to do Norway in a Nutshell." But our journey isn't over yet. Next stop: Tromsø, at 70 degrees north latitude. There, the Northern Lights we’ve been dreaming of are waiting.

Norway in a Nutshell Concept "Norway in a Nutshell" is a one- to two-day tour combining train, fjord cruise, and valley bus travel, traversing snow-capped mountains, fjords, forests, and countryside, condensing Norway's classic natural scenery into a short experience. One-Day Trip Highlights If you only have one day, you can choose: 📍 From Bergen → Flåm → Fjord Cruise → Bus/Train back to Bergen (Or vice versa, from Oslo) But my itinerary: Bergen → Voss → Gudvangen → Flåm → Myrdal → Oslo Transportation includes: Train 🚆 + Bus 🚌 + Fjord Cruise 🚢 + Mountain Railway 🚞 How to buy tickets? There are two options: ① Package ticket (simplest) It arranges everything for you, so you don't have to assemble your own transportation. ② Buy tickets for individual segments (cheaper) · Purchase train tickets from Norwegian Railways · Purchase fjord boat tickets from the fjord ferry company I was lucky enough to experience a private sleeper train compartment – ​​a very cool experience! On average, it cost NT$5500 per person to cover the transportation experience and the choice of cities to travel between. Usually, this is the reverse arrangement. Most travelers travel from Oslo to Bergen, and even the amount of luggage they bring varies. In Bergen, people bring fewer large suitcases (but we opted for three large suitcases, which cost NT$8000 with the official baggage allowance – it's cheaper if you use the hotel's official package!). We chose to pay extra to solve the most troublesome aspect – luggage – for a relaxed experience! Would one day be too rushed? ✔ Can be completed ✔ Many people travel this way ✔ It's a classic Norwegian travel route But you will: Leave early and return late (approximately 10–12 hours) Carry your own luggage (train platform transfers) If you've already explored Bergen city, this itinerary is perfect. Planning transportation isn't difficult; spending some time comparing options can help you find cost-effective solutions! #Oslo #NorwayInASize #Bergen #voss

Everyone knows Norway has spectacular fjords, but the waterfalls tucked away in its lush, green forests feel like they are straight out of a fantasy movie. If you are exploring western Norway (near Bergen or Voss), you cannot miss these two iconic, highly accessible spots: 📍 Steinsdalsfossen: The Interactive Waterfall Have you ever wanted to walk right behind a roaring waterfall? At Steinsdalsfossen, a safe, paved pathway leads you directly behind the massive curtain of water. The sound and the sheer power of the water crashing down right in front of you is unbelievable—and the best part is, you stay completely dry! 📍 Tvindefossen: The Cascading Giant Just a short drive from Voss, this towering, stepped waterfall cascades down over 100 meters of dark, rocky terraces. Local legend actually says that the water here is a fountain of youth! It is right next to the main road, making it the perfect low-effort, high-reward stop. 🌿 The Surrounding Magic Don't just rush from stop to stop. Take a moment to wander into the surrounding woods. As you can see in my photos, the forest floor is blanketed in thick, vibrant green moss, and the quiet, mirror-like fjord villages nearby offer the ultimate peaceful escape. 💡 Practical Tips Accessibility: Both of these waterfalls are incredibly easy to reach with parking located just a few minutes' walk from the viewing areas. Photography: For Tvindefossen, try using a slower shutter speed on your camera or phone to capture that smooth, silky look of the cascading water. Would you dare to walk behind a thundering waterfall? Let me know below! 👇 Tags: #NorwayTravel #Steinsdalsfossen #Tvindefossen #NordicNature #FairytaleTravel #HiddenGems #FjordNorway #TripcomCreator

Epic Norway in a Day: Bergen → Voss → Myrdal → Flåm → Voss → Oslo 🚉🇳🇴 This entire itinerary can be booked independently through the Vy app. Voss — We chose to stop here first to store our luggage. There are lockers at the station, but they turned out to be too small for our suitcases. So we did what we learned from the airport: left our bags next to the lockers and kept small valuables inside a locker. Using the locker is very simple—just scan, make the payment, and close the door; when you want to open it, simply unlock it via your mobile phone. Myrdal — We took a train from Voss to this station to connect to the Flåm Railway. Flåm Railway — If you’re heading to Flåm, sit on the left side for better views. The train also makes a short stop at a waterfall for photos. Flåm — From here, you can take a cruise to Gudvangen. Along the way, you’ll pass through Nærøyfjord, one of the most beautiful and narrow fjords, which is part of Sognefjord. Lockers in Flåm include large compartments suitable for big suitcases. Recommendation (for October): It’s better to go Oslo → Flåm → Bergen rather than Bergen → Flåm → Oslo. The first Flåm Railway departure from Myrdal starts relatively late, so traveling from Oslo fits better with the schedule. On the return, the journey to Bergen is shorter, allowing more time to rest. Example: Norway in a nutshells route Oslo → Myrdal → Flåm → Gudvangen → Voss → Bergen Route breakdown: Oslo → Myrdal (train; Vy) Myrdal → Flåm = Flåm Railway (train; Vy) Flåm → Gudvangen (cruise through Nærøyfjord) Gudvangen → Voss (Vy bus no. 450;vy or local shuttle bus; pay on-site) Voss → Bergen (train; Vy) Alternative: Gudvangen → Bergen (Vy bus no. 450) 📌Tips: 1. Train and bus schedules vary by month—always check in advance. 2. If it’s not peak season, you can buy train tickets closer to your travel date; prices may drop again after temporarily increasing. 3. Luggage transfer services are available (same-day delivery) between Bergen and Oslo. -> porterservice website 4. Recommended to allow a bit of extra time when selecting your locker duration, as the price difference is minimal—better than paying a penalty if you return late. 🌏🗺🧭✈️🛳#flamsbana #flam #norway #douubleuugotonorswe #douubleuugototheplanet

🏔️ When you think of Hardangerfjord, you might picture the deep blue waters of midsummer and the midnight sun of the polar day. However, another kind of "Norwegian aesthetic" is hidden in the fjord’s pure winter. Winter in Hardangerfjord is quiet and simple, a minimalist blank space embodying "Nordic beauty." ❄️ Capturing Majestic Winter Scenery When the first snow falls into the fjord, Hardanger transforms into a perfectly balanced blank canvas—peaceful, distant, and hauntingly beautiful. One of Norway’s most famous waterfalls, Vøringsfossen, freezes over, and the wind sweeping across the cliffs and ice produces a low hum, like the bass line of a seasonal symphony. 🏡 Step into the Villages Near the Fjord, and It Feels Like Entering a No-Man’s Land. The silent streets of Rosendal resemble a sheet of fine rice paper, while the terraced orchards of Lofthus are dusted with a thin layer of snow. At night, scattered lights glow golden, adding a warm "sparkle" to this blank canvas. 🧗 Climb into Untouched Scenery The giant rock "Trolltunga" (Troll’s Tongue) stands quietly 1,180 meters above sea level, like a giant troll’s tongue stretching out from the mountain. Put on snowshoes, grab your trekking poles, and follow a professional guide (Trolltunga Active) on a 10-12 hour hike. Standing on that overhanging rock, there are no crowds—only snowfields, the sound of the wind, and the mirror-like silence of the winter fjord. It feels as if the world has left a moment of blank space just for you to connect with yourself and nature. *TIPS: Winter hiking is extremely challenging. Always go with a professional mountain guide and do not attempt it alone. 🏂 Ski Across the Vast Snowfields Skiing is a national culture in Norway. When you visit Hardangerfjord in winter, you’ll understand why Norwegians love this sport so much. Hardanger is home to one of Norway’s most reliable ski resorts, Røldal Ski Resort. It boasts incredible snowfall and is a paradise for powder snow lovers. With 12 slopes totaling 15 kilometers, there’s always a trail tailored for you. You can also drive two hours to Voss Resort near the fjord. It’s one of western Norway’s largest ski areas, with expansive terrain and diverse slopes—40 kilometers of runs and 24 trails of varying difficulty await your challenge. Besides skiing, you can experience a variety of outdoor activities in the "Norwegian Extreme Sports Capital" of Voss: winter swimming, hiking, mountain biking... ignite your winter passion! 🔥 Outdoor Norway is a destination management company based in Voss. Whether you want to hike the fjords, experience thrilling rafting, mountain biking, cycling adventures, or enjoy outdoor skiing, Outdoor Norway will take care of it all. photo: Visit Hardangerfjord
