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! :>

#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

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

When you think of Hardangerfjord, you might picture its azure waters in the height of summer and the midnight sun of the midnight sun. However! Another breathtaking aspect of "Norwegian aesthetics" is hidden in the fjord's pristine winter. Winter in Hardangerfjord is quiet and uncluttered, a "Nordic minimalist art" that even Instagram-worthy photos can't capture. ❄️【Winter Limited Edition: Stunning Fjords】 When the first snow falls on the fjord, Hardangerfjord instantly transforms into a giant "work of art in white space." Vøringsfossen, one of Norway's top three waterfalls, is completely frozen, and the wind plays a winter symphony in the valley. Photography tips: Wear a brightly colored down jacket; every shot will be a masterpiece! 🏡【Fairytale Town Check-in】 Rosendal 📍: One of Norway's most beautiful villages! A snow-covered cabin bathed in warm yellow light—it's like stepping into an Andersen fairytale! ✨ Lofthus Hillside Orchard 🍎: Transforms into a "snow powder cake" in winter, breathtakingly beautiful at sunset! We recommend staying overnight in a wooden cabin by the fjord. 🧗【Adventurer's Paradise: Trolltunga】 Norway's must-see Instagram-worthy giant rock formation, "Trolltunga" 🗻 Winter-limited activities: ✔️Professional guided tour (Trolltunga Active) ✔️10-12 hour snow hike ✔️Spectacular views at 1180 meters altitude ⚠️Note: Must be done with a professional team; never go alone! 🏂【Recommended Ski Resort】 1️⃣ Røldal Ski Resort 📍Røldalsvegen 50, 5760 Røldal ✨Features: Powder snow paradise! 15km of super long ski runs ⏰Opening hours: November - April 2️⃣ Voss Resort 📍Bavallsvegen 35, 5700 Voss ✨Features: The largest ski resort in Western Norway! 40km of professional ski runs 🎿Activities: Skiing/Winter swimming/Mountain biking 🏆Recommended by professional outdoor teams: Outdoor Norway 📍Evangervegen 14, 5700 Voss Offers a wide variety of snow and ice activities including fjord hiking/skiing/rafting!

The Magical Troll's Waterfall This is Tvindefossen (also known as Tvinnefossen or Trollafossen—"Troll's Waterfall"). It is located in the municipality of Voss in Vestland county, approximately 12 km north of the town of Voss, along the E16 (Vossestrandvegen in the area). It is one of Norway's most famous and visited waterfalls: a multi-stream, cascading waterfall, rising approximately 150 meters (some measurements say 110-152 meters). It appears as numerous threads of water flowing over rocks and is especially beautiful after rain or in spring. In the 1990s, the waterfall became famous for its myth of "rejuvenating water," supposedly increasing vitality and potency—this drew thousands of tourists to the area to collect the waters. #norway #travel #Norway
