In Fjord Norway about an hour and a half from Bergen, you’ll find the Hardangerfjord – one of the longest fjords in the world and a vital destination for both culture and outdoor adventures.

You can visit the sure crowd-pullers Trolltunga, the Folgefonna glacier and the Vøringsfossen waterfall, but the list of attractions worth your time includes so much more. Explore cultural spots and museums, go on a fjord cruise, or visit in spring and experience the beautiful blossoming of thousands of fruit trees.

Checking into one of the many historical hotels in the area is also a great way to learn about the local culture and way of life. In addition, many rooms have magnificent views of mountains and fjord. The locally produced meats, jams, and other fresh treats are nothing short of otherworldly.

Embrace the hip and cool cider-culture you find here by joining the cider route and try many of the world-class ciders.
