2 nights, 7 stops. This is one of the routes we actually run across Norway. It is the spine of a trip, not the trip. Tell us how you travel and the plan reshapes it into yours.
Each stop earns its nights. The quiz decides how long you stay in each, and whether a stop drops off entirely because it is not you.
A fjord-head capital of glass and water. The Opera House roof walks straight up out of the harbour, the MUNCH tower stands next door in Bjørvika, and small ferries cross to wooded islands from the city quays.
Norway's longest fjord, 205 km inland, narrowing to the UNESCO Nærøyfjord where cliffs close in on an electric boat. The Flåm Railway climbs from sea level to Myrdal past waterfalls and hill farms.
Wooden Hanseatic warehouses on the Bryggen wharf, a fish market on the water, a funicular up Mount Fløyen, and an hour east the Hardangerfjord's orchards, cider farms and the Vøringsfossen waterfall.
From the Norway file. Real places, filed by people who went, not scraped from a Top 10 list.
The UNESCO-listed Bryggen wharf, then the funicular six minutes up Mount Fløyen, departures every 10 minutes and running 08:00 to midnight in summer. At the top are hiking trails, cafés, a restaurant open 11:00 to 23:00, and goats.
Bergen's cinnamon bun, brought in by the Hanseatic League in the 16th century and named after its original price of one skilling. The raisins vanished in the Second World War and never came back.
There has been trading on this spot since the 1200s. The indoor Mathallen opened in 2012 and runs year round, Monday to Saturday 09:00 to 21:30 and Sunday 10:00 to 21:30. The outdoor stalls run from 1 May through the summer.
Salt-cured, smoked and steamed sheep's head, served half a head to a portion with potatoes, mashed swede, beer and aquavit. Eaten in the weeks before Christmas.
Five short questions, about three minutes. The plan starts from this route and a library of Norway trips we have tested, then reshapes the nights, the food and the days to your pace and budget.
No sponsored stops, no filler days. If a place stays on your plan, it earned the spot.
