Favourite outside the city of Bergen
Fantoft Stave Church is a striking example of Norway’s medieval wooden architecture, originally built in the 12th century and reconstructed after a devastating fire in 1992. Located in a forests of Bergen, it offers a glimpse into Viking-era craftsmanship with its intricate carvings and steep, shingled roofs. Visiting Fantoft feels like stepping back in time—just watch out for any mysterious trolls hiding nearby!

Gamlehaugen in Bergen is the royal residence for our royal family. The castle is surrounded by lush gardens and scenic views of Lake Nordåsvannet. The castle was owned by the prime minister Christian Michelsen, who later gave the castle as a present to the royal family. Just lately, the King of Norway has opened his house for the public, let's have a look!

Troldhaugen is the charming home and museum of the famous Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, located in the scenic outskirts of Bergen. This historical villa, surrounded by lush gardens and fjord views, was where Grieg found inspiration for much of his music, making it a must-visit spot for music lovers and history buffs alike..
Troldhaugen
Ulriken is the highest mountain surrounding Bergen. This is a popular choice for hikers, both locals and visitors. It’s also the start of the popular trail, “Vidden,” a hike that connects Ulriken and Fløyen. From the top of Ulriken, you have an amazing view of Bergen, not only the city but also the surrounding neighborhoods. At the top, you also find a cozy café offering panoramic views. Lucky for us, we can take a gondol to the top.
