Norway is a ruggedly beautiful country of mountains, fjords and glaciers. The 'Land of the Midnight Sun' has delightfully long summer days, pleasantly low-key cities, unspoiled fishing villages and rich historic sites that include Viking ships and medieval stave churches. Norway prizes its stunning natural wonders and retains a robust frontier character unusual in Europe. It's not all frozen tundra, either. The temperate south includes rolling farmlands, enchanted forests and sunny beaches as well as the dramatic Western Fjords.

Out and About in Oslo

Sun, 19 Jun 2011 | By drmitch | Views [60]

I had to get up stupidly early to catch the 6 hour train to Oslo, where I walked the 15 minutes to Anker Hostel . Once again it is more of a “hotel” feel than a hostel, with a large waiting room, no kitchen but a hotplate in the dorm room, and very ... Read more >

Moffen Island, 80 Degress North

Sun, 17 Oct 2010 | By cbracco | Views [267]

We are at the halfway mark of our trip.   The weather has been remarkably cooperative so far and I have my fingers crossed that it stays that way.   Aside from some high swells on some nights while sailing, the water has been calm especially where we ... Read more >

Sat, 16 Oct 2010 | By pozitifff | Photo Gallery

In my photos I show Norway - different but fabulous like a scene for fairies. Some of these fairies are mysterious and strange, the others are educative and strong, or funny tales - but all of them are in Norway, about Norway. I love to make pictures ... Read more >
