Biking in Fjord-Norway in pictures
This is why you want to go biking in Fjord-Norway As you may have noticed while visiting my social media channels, I was biking in Norway over the past week.

The most amazing viewpoints in Fjord Norway
NORWAY … a place everyone I talk to wants to go. I seriously don’t recall ever talking to someone who said they wouldn’t be interested in going there. Norway is wanted. And famous. For its stunning nature, the fjords and the mountains. For its inspiring landscapes, great outdoor and adventure activities and being incredibly expensive. I’m amongst the lucky ones having been able to travel to Norway several times, always exploring another part of the country. It’s needless to say that the fjords are best observed from above. While hiking up will usually give you the best views, it’s not necessary to always hike up to get stunning views. We’ll…
