Pause at viewpoints to photograph soaring mountain peaks, deep-blue fjords, and one of Norway’s most beautiful beaches
How it works
From the ship, your bus winds its way along the ridge above the village of Bergsbotn. Here, you can step out on to a 44m-long platform, from where you can soak up jaw-dropping vistas of the Bergsfjord and the surrounding peaks.
Next, you’ll head to the Tungenes rest area, perched at the tip of the headland between Steinfjord and Ersfjord. Take a stroll along the wooden walkway that leads out over the rocks to enjoy views of the North Sea to the west and the razor-sharp Okshornan mountains to the north.
You final stop is Ersfjordstranda, a stunning arc of pristine white sand. Set against a backdrop of jagged peaks, this is Norway at its most beautiful. And be sure to check out the gold-plated toilet block before heading back to the bus!
