The first
trip to Norway is especially for our guests who love sea-sailing.
This trip will start from Dronrijp (The Netherlands) on Monday 9th
of July. First we take some time to get acquainted with each other. We
sail to Vlieland, the next day we hoist our sails for the trip to Norway.
Norwegian
Riviera
We will sailing along the Norwegian Riviera to Stavanger.
Mandal
The most southerly town in Norway can be one of
our destinations. Mandal has a long and fascinating history. A main attraction
in the summer is the Shellfish Festival, in witch tens of thousands of
people gorge themselves on shellfish of all varieties over a weekend.
If we have some time left we can visited Finn, our Norwegian friend, he
lives nearby Mandal.
Korshamn
In
this little town we will visit our Norwegian friend Henning and his family.
They preparing a delicious skalldire diner for us. Taste the hospitality
of the Norwegian people!
Flekkefjord
We can see Flekkefjord. This town
has a charming collection of wooden houses. The oldest quarter is called
"Hollenderbyen" or "Dutch Quarter", a reminder of
days gone by.
Beyond the Flekkefjord is the island of Hidra with its idyllic communities, Kirkehamn and Rasvåg.
Stavanger
We will discover Stavanger.
The city has a wide variety of exciting nightlife. Nice shops, a daily
market and small white wooden houses.
Interesting museums like the Maritime, Norwegian Petroleum and the Archaeological.
This oil capital is also The Gateway to the Norwegians fjords.
We hoist our sails for a nice sailing trip to the beautiful and changing countryside of Ryfylke with his mountains and fjords.
The Pulpit Rock
Norway's greatest attractions remains its scenery.
And where can you see that better than on the Pulpit Rock!
The Pulpit (Preikestolen) is one of the most famous tourist attractions in the southern part of Norway. The mountain plateau dives 604 meters vertically to the Lysefjord below, and the top is an almost level plateau of 25x25 meters. You can see all the way into Lysebotn at the end of the Lysefjorden.
We offer you the possibility to walk (approximately 1.5 to 2 hours from Preikestolhytta) to this famous rock.
Skudeneshavn
Of course we will discover the idyllic town Skudeneshavn,
with his old wooden houses.
Skudeneshavn bills itself as the most picturesque village on the west
coast.
The Hardangerfjord
Sailing trough the Blømlafjorden to the queen
of the fjords, the Hardangerfjord.
Hardangerfjord stretches 179 km from the ocean to the mountains, and is Hordaland’s longest fjord. From mountains and glaciers the majestic waterfalls foam down into the fjord.
This fjord is famous because of a mild and pleasant climate and clear, light summer nights. They are ideal for our guests, as well as for fruit and berries.
Rosendal
A village on the outer part of Hardangerfjord and close to the
Folgefonn-glacier. Main attraction is the Rosendal Baronial Manor from 1665.
The Folgefonn-glacier
The glacier is Norwegian 3rd biggest glacier. You
can walk from Sunndal to the majestic Folgefonn-glacier or take a seaplane
for flying around the glacier.
We sail trough the Bjørnafjorden to Bergen.
Bergen
This city was Norway's premier trading center for
centuries. In its heyday, the fish trade provided the basis for one of
northern Europe's largest and richest cities.
In Bergen, there is no missing the fish market and Bryggen - built by members of the old Hanseatic league. The Fløybanen funicular railway, with its spectacular views, is a must, as is Grieg's home, "Troldhaugen".
Music lovers listen to Grieg and picture in their mind's eye fjords, mountains, green forests, rivers and trolls.
On July 20 leaves the ferry from Bergen to Denmark. With our van* you
