Region

The Bergen region has a fantastic coastline with thousands of islands and a buzzing cultural scene. There are many possibilities for people looking for active experiences. The island archipelago and the majestic fjords make for highly varied sceneray. Waterfalls cascade down the mountainsides, snow glitters on the mountain tops and lus green pastures line the fjords.

Lovely small villages line the fjords like a string of pearls and fi shing villages cling to the shoreline. This is a land of contrasts – from gentle and mild to rugged and wild – all natural and unspoilt.

The scenery is not just something to be admired – combine the fantastic scenery with some of the huge range of invigorating and exciting activities on offer. Visit some of the countless islands out at the coast. 

Take part in nature-based activities such as walking, sailing, cycling, kayaking, rafting, fi shing, paragliding and summer skiing, to name but a few. There are activities for ‘extreme’ enthusiasts and for friends looking for shared experiences in the great outdoors. 
Distances are short and you can fi t a lot in even if you only have a few days. It’s easy to get here no matter where you come from – by boat, train, bus or car.
