Intro

I have been 10 times to Norway and counting – this is one of my favourite places in the world, where you can seek connecting with yourself and get a sneak peak into life of people, that conquered the fjords and learned how to coexist with rough nature.

When?

My favourite time is June, as lots of facilities are open again, not so many tourists and the midnight sun is full on (cons is still snow on top on the mountains). Alternatively second half of August for less snow on tops. For a reference, this is how 22:04 on June 26th looks like in Ålesund area.

There are some travel staples I apply to all my trips to make sure I experience Norway to the fullest – and that will help you also form right expectations from what you can experience as well.

Staple 1: traditional accommodation options aka Norwegian cabins (hytte)

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Olia Svarga
Hello! I'm Olia, Ukrainian Dutch living in Amsterdam 🇳🇱 Welcome to my page, where I share my knowledge about my favourite destinations: Norway 🇳🇴 and Japan 🇯🇵, which I have visited 10 and 6 times respectively. I have accumulated a lot of knowledge about Norway and organised three custom-made tours to different group of friends and colleagues – however, more and more people started asking "Olga, how can I get into a trip to Norway with you?" I realised it's time to document my knowledge into detailed itineraries with my favourite spots ☺️. Those itineraries continue growing, as I keep visiting Norway every year, exploring more and more new corners. I create my guides with utmost care and love to Norwegian nature, culture and traditions; my favourite campings, restaurants, hikes – I really want you to experience it all! I'm also available for 1-1 calls and consultations on really special custom-made itineraries – just text 🤳
