Magical Bergen, Norway 🌄
Let’s talk about how beautiful Bergen, Norway is.
Epic waterfalls, jaw-dropping lakes, and the kind of mountain views your phone wallpaper wishes it could capture 🌄😎
Top Spots to Visit:
1. Steinsdalsfossen Waterfall (Mo ved Steinsdalen, 5600 Norheimsund)
Open all day, year-round! You can literally walk *behind* this waterfall—bring a waterproof jacket and your best rain-resistant phone case for legendary photos. The viewing path is easy and super close to the parking lot.
2. Bondhusvatnet (Unnamed Road, 5475 Ænes)
Bondhusvatnet is a mega-serene lake surrounded by dramatic peaks. The hike here is stroller and dog friendly, so no excuses—just go! Early morning means glassy water for the best reflections, plus fewer crowds.
3. Folgefonna National Park (Skålafjæro 17, 5470 Rosendal)
Open all day, all year. Folgefonna is glacier country and serves mountain vibes times ten. There are lots of trails, from “I-want-a-leisurely-walk” to “I’m-ready-for-an-expedition.” Always check local weather: fog rolls in fast!
Pro-Tips:
– Download “get your guide” app before you go. I used it for guided tours and super-quick ticket info onsite—no WiFi drama.
– Most hikes are straightforward, but pack good boots and use the facilities at the main parking areas (restrooms are rare in wild Norway!).
– Norway is credit card friendly—leave the cash at home.
Get Around:
A rental car is a game-changer. Everything is spread out, and public transit is limited for these escapes.
What to Eat:
Try local salmon at any riverside restaurant (especially in small towns near the lakes). For coffee + pastries, stop at Norheimsund bakeries.
