We will be in Norway for 12 days in April. Any thoughts or tips?

Hurtigruten?

Norway is a big country.

Do you have an itinerary or are you trying to come up with one?

6 of my Friends and I road-tripped from Stavanger to Trondheim back in 2019. It was 11 days including flight time to and from Houston. We did a lot of hiking and sight seeing and it was one of the best trips we've gone on. Would highly recommend and can share the itinerary and map if you are interested.

Norway isn't on our travel wishlist but we are watching Below Deck Adventure and it us based in Norway. There is some beautiful scenery and water. Some of the excursions have been riding bikes down a really scenic switchback road (Trollstigen Road) rapelling, and ziplining.

I had clients do a Hurtigruten cruise. It was the weirdest cruise ever. They have some regular ships, but this one was almost more like a cargo ship. I think they were used a long time ago to get people between the cities. It made a ton of stops, often being "in port" 6-12 minutes. Only a handful of the 30+ stops were longer than 20 minutes.

They allow cars to get on/off. Just a very odd experience to me (clients loved it).

We are thinking of Oslo, Bergen, Alesund and maybe Trondheim.

That would be great! Thank you!

Norway is one of a few places in the world you can go to a restaurant and order whale meat.

I had a whale meat in Stavanger. It wasn't good. But I checked it off the list.

Pulpit Rock was an AMAZING hike.
