Sogn og Fjordane I hate cruise ships. Smaller craft going deep into Songenfjord ?
Posted: Fri July 18, 2008 04:20 AM UTC
OR Are there sleep-aboard sailboats or smaller boats that we can stay on as we travel up the coastline into various fjords? We are backpacker types and sailors so we hope to find an "UNluxury" trip.
We will be going in May 2009. Thanks!!!!

Sogn og Fjordane Bus or Train from Flam to Bergen
Posted: Thu July 3, 2008 10:20 AM UTC
Which is the better way to travel between Flam and Bergen - bus or train? I have read about the bus between Gudvangen and Voss which goes via Stalheim, takes the famous super-steep Old Stalheim Road, which is worth seeing. Would it be better to take the bus from Flam to Voss and then use the train to Bergen (this is the route that the Norway in a Nutshell trip takes?

Flåm Flam-Gudvangen or Flam-Bergen Ferry
Posted: Wed March 19, 2008 11:29 PM UTC
I will be staying in Flam in June, and then going to Bergen from there. I am trying to decide whether to take Flam-Gudvangen Ferry or Flam-Bergen Ferry. These are two choice I have:
1. Flam-Gudvangen round trip, and leave for Bergen in Flam->Bergen ferry next day.
2. Flam-Gudvangen round trip, and leave for Bergen in bus next day.
My question is Is Flam-Gudvangen route worth doing when I am anyway taking Flam->Bergen ferry next day? In other words, if I take Flam-Bergen ferry and skip Flam-Gudvangen, then will I miss something in Flam-Gudvangen route? Looking at the map, Flam->Bergen route does not cover the undredal-Gudvangen route, but I am just wondering if Flam-Gudvangen route is a MUST do for some reason. Of course, it would be great to do both, but it costs quite a lot!!

Flåm From Sogndal to Flåm....
Posted: Mon March 12, 2007 03:16 AM UTC
Hi!

From Sogndal to Flåm, I find the bus connection, Sogndal via Laerdal & Aurland to Flåm, but there is a long tunnel , and I do not want to go through the tunnel if possible...

Is that possible to connect Sogndal - Flåm direct by ferry?


Thanks!!

Flåm Staying in Flåm
Posted: Mon July 24, 2006 01:19 PM UTC
I am having a very difficult time finding accomodation in Flam, all of the 3 hotels I've contacted are booked out. Does anyone know of any off the beaten track hotels or guesthouses that may be free? Or maybe someone can advise me if there is likely not to be a chance in finding something at this stage? We are taking the train there tommorrow, Tuesday 25th July. Maybe there is another town nearby where accomodation won't be as thin on the ground?
Thanks for ANY help everyone.

Sogn og Fjordane 3 day tour the end of April
Posted: Fri March 3, 2006 03:29 AM UTC
I see a lot of great thoughts on the Sogn og Fjordane. My wife and I plan on spending three days in the area at the end of April 2006. I will have a rental car to drive from Bergen. I am thinking of staying in Sogndal and taking day trips. I want to take the most scenic loops available that time of year. Thinking of North around Geiranger one day, Balestrand west one day and Lustrafjord the last day. Too ambitious? Slow down and concentrate in an area more? Help! Advice. Looking for beautiful fjord views and quant towns.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts and or experiences including warnings of what to avoid.

Sogn og Fjordane Round Trips In October
Posted: Tue August 2, 2005 05:24 PM UTC
Can anyone tell me if there are any kind of boat travelling trough Sogn og Fjordane in October?
I´ve made my research and there´s a lot of round trips cruises, safaris and so on in the summer but it seems that in October there´s nothing , so i understand that we cannot travel trough the fjords in that time of the year, is that really true ????

I pass the norway in a nutshell it´s too expensive....
