    Discover Bergen

    • Catch the funicular up to Mount Fløyen and enjoy great walks and views of the city
    • Explore the seven mountains surrounding the city on foot
    • Take the time to admire the many museums and galleries

    Head west, and you’ll find Bergen set snugly between the ocean, mountains and two of Norway’s biggest fjords. This is a city that feels more like a small town, thanks to a welcoming and walkable centre of fish markets, galleries, restaurants and parks. It’s also one of the oldest port cities in Northern Europe – and with the UNESCO-listed Bryggen harbour to prove it. On our Bergen walking holidays, adventure is always in view. A funicular and cable car whisk walkers into the mountains and boats voyage into the fjords. Plus, there’s the train station – the gateway to some of the Europe’s most scenic train journeys.

    More about Bergen

    Things to do in Bergen

    For those multi-coloured houses on the shores that Bergen is so well known for, head to Bryggen Wharf. This is listed as a UNESCO world heritage site due to its importance in the Hanseatic League’s trading empire that lasted for centuries. The buildings you see today have been rebuilt over the years but were built using the same methods they would have used hundreds of years ago. Today, you’ll find a few small businesses and shops in this area that generally promote local traditions and crafts.

    The city of Bergen has plenty of gallery's, museums, and cultural experiences on offer and if you purchase the Bergen card then several of these can be accessed at a discounted rate. Whether you want to see masterpieces by Munch or some maritime history there’s something to suit everyone.

    If art and music are of interest, then KODE is an organisation with several museums and composer’s homes under its umbrella. They all have different artists and composers works on display so do your research before you go, especially as temporary exhibitions are often changing but it’s a great introduction to some of Norway’s art history.

    For those with a taste for contemporary art, you may want to visit the Bergen Kunsthall – there’s often several temporary exhibitions you can visit and the museums setting is lovely – right in front of the Lille Lungegardsvannet lake.

    The Gamle Museum is fantastic fun for all. It’s an open-air museum set on a little street in Bergens old town. It shows what the original architecture was like and there are actors passing through the street in traditional dress. It’s an immersive experience to give a glimpse into what life was like back in the 1800s.

    The Bergen Maritime Museum has a fascinating display showing Norway’s history with the sea over past centuries, with models of ships and boats as well as historic communication devices available to view. And if this floats your boat (pun intended), then why not head to the Bergenhus Fortress, it’s one of the oldest forts in Norway and has it’s own museum.

    The Bergen Tekniske Museum will appeal to anyone with an interest in transportation and communication. Or, head to the Science Centre VilVite it’s great for children and adults with lots of interesting displays showcasing science and technology.

    There’s plenty of ways to get out and see the beautiful Fjords of Norway but being based in Bergen means you can reach the Fjords by water or land. The Hardangerfjord is the second largest in Norway and has incredible scenery, it takes a while to get there but it’s well worth a visit and there’s plenty of day trips on offer. Or, journey to the Sognefjord via the Flam railway, get amazing views of the valley before taking to the waters of the fjord by boat and take in those dramatic views. See our excursions below for more details.

    Head to one of the most active towns in Norway, Voss. For a day full of adventure, hop on one of the early trains and journey for around 1 hour 15 minutes before arriving in this charming Norwegian town. Once in Voss you can make the most of your day, explore the hiking routes, dine in some of the local restaurants, journey on the Voss cable car to get great views or, relax in the town centre and watch the world go by. After a wonderful day in Voss, you can head back on the train to Bergen (make sure you plan your journey in advance).

    Make sure you checkout our excursions below for plenty of fun days out.

    With seven mountains surrounding the city you're not short on great views and walking trails. If you're looking to see those panoramic city views without too much exertion though, then hop on the funicular and head for Mount Fløyen. You can purchase tickets at the station at the bottom not far from central Bergen and you're up there in less than 10 minutes. At the top you'll find a viewing area that looks down on the city below, it's the perfect picture spot. You'll also find a small number of cafes, restaurants and walking trails to try out if you're up to it. You can catch the funicular back down, or there's a 3.5 kilometre path you can follow that takes you back down into the city - it's downhill all the way, with some steeper parts but you get to see lovely views peaking through the trees as you descend.

    From £178 per person

    See the world’s second longest fjord, the Sognefjord, in all its beauty! Sognefjord in a Nutshell lets you experience everything from high mountain peaks to the water's edge. Travel in comfort through pristine nature on an unforgettable fjord ferry cruise and hop on the Flåm railway for an incredibly picturesque journey through Norwegian landscapes.

    You'll have the option to start the tour with the scenic Flam railway journey from Bergen to Flåm (via Myrdal) and then hop on the ferry for the second part of the trip through the Sognefjord and back to Bergen. Alternatively, start your day on the ferry and head along the Sognefjord to Flåm, where you can get the train back to Bergen (via Myrdal).

    This is a great hike for those wanting to escape the city and enjoy the peaceful nature surrounding Bergen. You’ll meet in the centre of Bergen (exact location will be confirmed) where you’ll have a short intro and briefing before heading up to the top of Mount Floyen on the funicular (the funicular cost is not included in the tour and you will need to pay for the ticket locally). Once at the top of Mount Floyen you’ll be guided on a hike, passing by views of Bergen and less-popular trails. The local guide will take you on a three – four hour walk while providing information on the local culture, habitats and history. After a great walk in the mountains above Bergen you’ll finish the walk in the town centre of Bergen.
    Ensure you have suitable equipment and clothing for hiking including appropriate, sturdy shoes for walking - there may not be anywhere on route to buy food or drink so it’s recommended you take some with you.

    Your journey will begin with a 40 – 55 minutes’ drive to get to the start of the hike. The guide decides the route taking into account the groups walking ability and the weather forecast but all routes have fantastic views, fjord scenery and take you off the beaten track, so you enjoy more peaceful trails. With a local guide guiding you, you’ll also get to hear about the Norwegian culture and local habitats. You’ll be hiking for around 3 – 5 hours, on uneven and rugged terrain, you’ll be ascending and descending so some experience of mountain hiking is necessary.
    For hiking you need to ensure you have shoes that are suitable for hiking in wet/rough terrain. (If you don’t have suitable walking shoes then the guide can refuse to let you participate in the walk). You will also need to take your own packed lunch and plenty of water and appropriate clothing for changing weather.
