Visiting Norway. Any tips ?

Hi Alice! I am in Norway right now, so I can share a bit of my experience if you want. I'm sure all the fjords are beautiful, I don't think you can really go wrong here. Personnally, I went to see Hardangerfjord, which you can easily reach from Bergen. On all the fjords, a lot of companies run day-cruises; however, those are generally quite expensive, so what I did instead was take a bus from Bergen to Norheimsund (bus 925 if I remember correctly) then the ferry on Hardangerfjord. Since this ferry is technically "public transport", it's a little bit cheaper than cruises, even though it's still mostly for tourists. You can choose to stop in any of the villages around the fjord (choose when you book online) and then take the return trip in the afternoon. I had originally chosen Eidfjord, but changed my mind at the last minute and opted for Ulvik instead. It was beautiful and very peaceful (and gave me a little bit more time "on land" than Eidfjord). I'm sure all the stops are a good choi

Hi,I don't know if this will still be useful on this topic, but I have just traveled from Göteborg to Oslo and I can say that the interrail pass IS valid on the replacement bus! This covers the Rygge - Oslo section, so roughly the last (or first, starting from Oslo) hour of the Göteborg - Olso route. From what I could understand, the disruption is due to maintenance work that will continue for quite a while. However, it is very easy to change in Rygge, it is well organised, so no need to worry. There is also no need for a reservation. I traveled in July and there was enough space on the train and bus.I hope this will be useful for somebody :)
