From quiet forests and mountain lakes to the breathtaking panorama 604 metres above Lysefjord, every part of the journey is meant to be enjoyed rather than rushed. There is plenty of time for breaks, photos, and simply taking in the scenery while your guide handles the planning and shares local knowledge along the way.
