Few destinations capture the imagination quite like Norway. Home to some of the world's most spectacular fjords, this is a country where towering mountains plunge into deep blue waterways, waterfalls cascade from sheer cliffs and tiny villages sit beneath dramatic peaks shaped by glaciers over thousands of years. The Norwegian fjords are the country's defining feature, with waterways such as Geirangerfjord, Nordfjord and Åkrafjord carving deep into the landscape and creating some of Europe's most dramatic scenery.
Walking allows you to experience these landscapes in a way that simply isn't possible from a coach window or viewpoint. A short fjord-side trail can reveal hidden waterfalls, peaceful valleys and breathtaking panoramas, while every day brings a new perspective on one of Europe's most remarkable natural environments.
What makes Norway especially rewarding is the contrast between sea and mountain. One moment you can be standing beside a tranquil fjord, the next looking down on it from a mountain path hundreds of metres above. Combined with rich maritime heritage, welcoming communities and unforgettable scenery, it's easy to see why Norway remains one of Europe's most sought-after walking destinations.
Norway is home to more than a thousand fjords, carved by vast glaciers during the Ice Age. These dramatic waterways are among the country's defining features, creating landscapes that feel almost impossibly grand in scale.
Our Fjords of Norway holiday combines scenic cruising with guided walks, allowing you to experience the region from both land and water. You'll sail through spectacular fjord landscapes, explore peaceful villages and enjoy rewarding walks that showcase Norway's extraordinary natural beauty from every angle.
The unique combination of walking and cruising means you can access places that many visitors never reach, while enjoying constantly changing scenery throughout your journey.
Norway's landscapes are renowned for their scale and variety. Expect towering mountains, cascading waterfalls, glacier-carved valleys and some of Europe's most spectacular viewpoints.
One of the highlights of exploring Norway is experiencing its scenery from both land and water. Scenic cruising provides a completely different perspective on the fjords, while walks ashore allow you to immerse yourself in the landscapes and discover hidden corners of the region.
Our experienced leaders bring destinations to life through their local knowledge, helping you uncover the stories, history and natural wonders that make Norway so fascinating.
Cruising between destinations means less time travelling and more time exploring. Unpack once, relax on board and wake up to a new landscape waiting to be discovered.
Norway's fjords and mountains support a rich variety of wildlife, from seabirds and marine life along the coast to species adapted to the country's rugged mountain environments.
Whether you're drawn by the dramatic scenery of the Norwegian fjords, the appeal of scenic cruising or the opportunity to explore one of Europe's most remarkable landscapes on foot, Norway offers an unforgettable walking experience.
Our Fjords of Norway holiday has been carefully designed to combine rewarding walks with spectacular cruising, allowing you to experience the very best of this extraordinary destination. From peaceful fjord-side villages to breathtaking mountain viewpoints, every day reveals a new side of Norway's remarkable natural beauty.
