Suggestions for your stay in Norway
While in Norway, make sure to explore Oslo, the capital. Nature lovers will appreciate stunning destinations like Geirangerfjord and Lofoten.
Geirangerfjord is a must-visit for nature enthusiasts, but Nærøyfjord offers equally breathtaking views and experiences.
For a seaside escape, head to beautiful beaches like Paradisbukta in Oslo, Seljesanden in Nordfjord, or Bunes Beach in Lofoten.
Winter sports lovers should visit Northern Norway, especially Hemsedal, the country's most popular ski resort.
