Exploring Norway Fjords by Car
Renting a car opens up a wealth of options to customize a Norway fjords itinerary. Even in high season there will be times when you are all alone on the roads. Turn off the main routes and perhaps you’ll end up in a dense forest, or on top of a hill with an unspoiled view of a fjord all to yourself.
Norway’s Pulpit Rock Hike
Also known as Pulpit Rock, Preikestolen is the region’s biggest tourist attraction. A cubed cliff 604 meters (1,982 feet) above the Lysefjord, Preikestolen is known around the world for the photographs of tourists dangling their feet over the ledge.
Norway World Heritage Sites
Norway’s eight World Heritage Sites are a diverse mix of world-famous sights and little-known gems, from natural wonders like beautiful fjords to cultural wonders including prehistoric rock carvings.
