Norway Hiking & Walking Tour & Trip Reviews | Travelstride

I loved this trip. The equipment was in very good condition. The fjords are awe strikingly  beautiful. The water is clear and the Norwegian people were incredibly nice and hospitable. 

Our guides were top notch. They worked very hard to make our trip the best it could be for us. Lots of personal service from REI Adventures. I have to look back at my pictures to make sure I actually took the trip. It was a life altering experience for me.

Nes Gard Farm is a fantastic place. The meals were fresh, healthy, and 
delicious. Each day we traveled to a new location for hiking. The people in 
my tour group were great - 8 women and 3 couples. Everyone was game for 
adventure and being active. Our tour guides were knowledgeable and very 
personable.
The incredible landscape on every hike. It's too difficult to pick out one 
outstanding moment because each day presented a new aspect of Norway.


Group leaders were professional and attentive to individual needs.


Be prepared to hike on uneven terrain and smooth rock surfaces. Trails are 
steep and often slick. I was cardio fit but I did my conditioning on groomed 
trails. The glacier walk is very challenging. Gaitors are highly recommended 
to pants clean.


Do not go on the glacier walk if it's been raining.

Walking the Fjords

A great week of hiking in a beautiful location with good accommodation and 
lovely food - and with great guides.  This is a full program with little 
'down time'.
The iconic views from the Molden peak with its stunning views of Sognefjord.


Asbjorn is an an exceptional guide and also a very nice man with so much 
knowledge and experience.  Sadly he is looking to retire which will be a 
shame to miss all of those stories, but he is currently training his 
replacement Lucas, who I think will make also make a great host/guide.  We 
found them both very helpful &amp; approachable as well as being very 
knowledgeable of their environment and locality.  An real asset to this trip.


Do not under-estimate this trip.  This is a hiking trip, not walking.  Many 
of the hikes are quite a bit longer than the notes imply and you will be 
expected to scramble a little as well as doing a lot of walking on very 
uneven ground.  This is all fine if you're used to this &amp; expecting it, but 
be warned.


Stay an extra night in Bergen, there is so much to see &amp; do there and the 
itinerary does not give anywhere near enough time there.

'Hiking in Norway', not 'Walking the Fjords'

The accommodation and the guides could not have been better.
Seeing everyone hiking up and down despite their ages.


Awesome

We were picked up from the airport with no problem and taken to a very nice 
hotel (Thon Orion) in Bergen. The hotel puts on a free evening buffet type 
dinner which was perfectly adequate for us. The rooms were good, clean and 
comfy. Asbjorn owns the farm in Nes where we stayed, and he drove us there, 
quite a long journey but with plenty of stops. He was happy to tell us all 
about his country and Nes Gard. The accommodation was lovely, just across the 
road from the Fjord. My bed was amazingly comfortable, everywhere was 
spotless. Food was delicious. The walks were varied, not difficult if you're 
used to hiking. Some might find some of the walks a little challenging, as 
the terrain was often rocky, and steep in places. Some of the walks were 
there and back the same way which probably couldn't be helped, but it made me 
feel a little cheated.
I would say that it had to be our walk on the Glacier as it was something I'd 
never done before, I didn't know what to expect. We were given crampons and 
ice picks and roped together in groups of about 12, an experienced guide at 
the front, and off we went up the Glacier after being told how to walk in 
crampons of course. The blue of the Glacier was stunning, and looking down 
into crevices was beautiful. This is an optional extra of the holiday but 
well worth doing. Quite pricey at nearly £60.


Asbjorn took us on our 1st walk up to Molden Peak. He was great, very 
informative and knowledgeable . The rest of the week our guide was Inar who 
was also fantastic. He kept us safe, he knew what we were capable of and he 
had lots of stories to tell us which kept us amused. He's only a young lad 
but certainly knew what he was doing, he was a delight.


Most people know that Norway is expensive, but it still comes as quite a 
shock. If you like a beer to cool you down after a day out walking, take 
plenty of money. Half litre of lager is about £7.50 and a bottle of wine 
about £30.
Also it might be a good idea to take mosquito spray, we did encounter a few 
during the week.


I'm a Vegan, and my evening meals were fabulous.

I had a lovely time in Norway. During the day we were kept busy with hikes in 
the mountains surrounding the Norwegian fjords - good exercise and beautiful 
views. Our guest house was charming - was surprised by how nice it was - and 
the staff was super friendly. We even saw quite a few UNESCO world heritage 
sites. Overall I was positively surprised with Norway and glad i chose this 
trip. Great company too!
The beautiful views took me away from my everyday worries and who would have 
thought going onto the glacier would be so much more fun than just looking at 
it from up close!


I loved Einar - he is young and super humble but he really tried hard to take 
care of us. Lovely guy


Fitness levels - moderate for one person is challenging for another 
especially when there are time limits for certain hikes.

An action packed week of walking in an area of stunning scenery. Walks full 
of interest and every day was different terrain so all walks very different 
all superbly guided.
Even the  journey from Bergen to our accommodation was beautiful both ways 
including ferry crossings of stunning fjords
Nes Gard was a wonderful place to stay. So friendly, lovely accommodation &amp; 
superb food.
A beautiful long walk starting in one valley and walking over to another 
valley with views of multiple glaciers &amp; peaks with an almost 360 degree 
view.


Einer was an excellent guide, full of information about the area &amp; his 
country. He took a lot of care to make sure the group able to walk at their 
own pace while still accommodating the slower walkers.
And he carried coffee for all of usto the top of each route every day !! What 
luxury!


Make sure you are fit enough to walk all day, with usually more than half the 
walk of course being up hill.


Highly recommend this holiday as a good way to visit a beautiful area of 
Norway. You could not walk in a more stunning area.  Food &amp; drink is 
expensive in Norway but as all our food was included even the meals we 
thought we were going to have to provide so that meant plenty left to spend 
on beer!
