12 Days Norway

1st Day Arrival in Oslo (Mon)

I arrived in Oslo late Monday evening. To avoid having to search for a long time, I booked a hotel, Radison Blu, right at Oslo airport.

2nd Day Odda (Tue)

Early in the morning, the bus left from the Oslo bus station towards Oslo. The journey took about 5 hours. There are not many kilometers, but due to the many mountains and fjords, there are hardly any straight roads. In Odda, I stayed at the Trolltunga Studios hostel. It was quite okay to be alone in the six-bed room. In the evening, I went for a walk in Odda and had salmon there.

3rd Day Trolltunga Hike (Wed)

On the third day, I hiked to Trolltunga. The bus left directly from the hotel. I returned in the evening at 6 o'clock and just rested and warmed up in the evening.

4th Day Odda (Thu)

Resting, walking, and eating in Odda. Odda is a very small but very beautiful city. It has everything you need.

5th Day Stavanger (Fri)

Again with the Nor-way Express Bus, I went to the city of Stavanger. 5-hour journey by bus and ferry. Stavanger is a very multicultural city with a beautiful old town.

6th Day Kjeragbolten Hike (Sat)

In the morning, the bus went directly from Stavanger to Kjeragbolten. Journey took 2.5 hours. Arriving there at 10 o'clock, we started right away. The hike to Kjeragbolten is more of a via ferrata or a climbing route than a trail and very exhausting. You definitely need good shoes. After 5 hours and 10 kilometers, the bus returned to Stavanger. Then it was time to rest.

7th Day Bergen (Sun)

I went to Bergen by bus. Arriving in the evening, I took a short walk through Bergen and had dinner.

8th Day Sightseeing Tour in Bergen (Mon)

I took the sightseeing bus and went all around Bergen.

9th Day Oslo (Tue)

The bus ride took about 10 hours. Arriving in the evening, dinner and off to bed.

10th Day Oslo (Wed)

It was very rainy, so I decided to take a sightseeing bus tour and then I went to a fitness and wellness center to do some sports and swimming.

11th Day Oslo (Thu)

As the weather was good, I visited the Viking Ship Museum

Afterwards, I went to the park with the naked statues Vigeland.

And then at the ski jumping hill Holmenkollen

In the evening at Hard Rock Café Oslo, there was a delicious meal and dessert. Afterwards, there was a live music performance.

Day 12 (Fri)

Rest, pack, eat. Tomorrow the plane leaves at 7.

It was nice :)
