Norway

Hiking in Norway - see Naroy Fjorden for hikes.

On my next trip try a dinner cruise in Oslo. Also on a Rick Steves video he mentions Balestrand, a classic 19th century resort town. The main resort Kviknes Hotel looks amazing and has a huge buffet of Norwegian delicacies.



 

One of my favourite stops on the Rick Steves tour was Østerbø Fjellstove, a fantastic camp in a picturesque valley. They provide a location for doing a variety of activities all year round.
