From Bergen: The Original Fjord Cruise to Mostraumen

From Bergen: The Original Fjord Cruise to Mostraumen

Discover the stunning natural beauty of the Norwegian fjords on a scenic fjord cruise from Bergen. Board a modern and comfortable boat and catch views of Bryggen, a UNESCO World Heritage site, as you set sail from the city center. Venture through the majestic Osterfjord with striking mountain landscapes and waterfalls. The further into the fjord you get, the steeper and more powerful the mountain landscape becomes. Enter the sun deck as the captain steers the boat’s bow so close to a waterfall that you can feel its refreshing spray. Sit back and relax on the sun deck or inside the warm and comfortable cabin, and remember to look for eagles along the fjord's shores. Stop by the kiosk for some tasty locally baked treats to enjoy as you take in the wonderful scenery. On the coldest days, there may even be ice in the fjord, adding its own special thrill. The captain then chooses an alternative route that gives you the same magical fjord experiences in winter scenery.

From Bergen: Fjord cruise & guided mountain hike

From Bergen: Fjord cruise & guided mountain hike

Step aboard a modern catamaran and sail from Bergen’s historic city center on a stunning fjord cruise through beautiful fjord landscapes! The further into the fjord landscape you get, the steeper and more powerful the mountain landscape becomes. Cruise past tall waterfalls, steep mountains and charming villages, and remember to keep an eye out for local wildlife like sea eagles! After cruising the fjords for 1.5 hours, you’ll arrive at the idyllic village of Mo in Modalen. Meet with a professional mountain guide, who will take you on a short transfer from the harbor to the starting point of this unique mountain adventure. A limit of 10 people per trip makes this an exclusive fjord and mountain experience! Hike off the beaten path, accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, to the top of “The Castle” – the Bergen region’s version of the famous Preikestolen plateau in miniature. Breathe in the fresh mountain air and appreciate the view of the fjord you just sailed through. Enjoy a break and your packed lunch at the top before you head back down to Mo. The hike takes about one hour each way and has a vertical gain of 200 meters. Use waterproof shoes with good traction as the hiking trail might be wet in some places. Relax on the large viewing decks or in the comfortable cabin as you return to Bergen by boat.

The most magical fjord experience a short distance from Bryggen Harbour. The catamaran was as expected with an inside deck providing a good view as well as front and back outside decks providing a better view. The cruise was awesome but needed more commentary about what to know, where we going and the story of what we were seeing.

When the boat slowed down the door at the front was open. Upstairs was open the whole time but in February and with the boat moving fast it was very cold so was nicer to go out front once we slowed down.

Excellent value for money - a lovely way to see the stunning fjords. Really pleased with the choice I made and would definitely recommend to others.

Great attraction, wonderful organization and unique views

super beautiful! you get to see everything of the fjord!
