OLDEN, NORWAY

We continue along the so-called Kjøsnesfjord, enjoying the Jostedal glacier and a visit to the Norwegian Glacier centre.


We begin by driving along the Fjord towards Utvik Mountain where we stop for photo opportunities. On the other side of the valley we pass through the very green Våtedalen reaching the northern end of Jølster Lake.

We continue along the so-called Kjøsnesfjord, before traversing the six kilometre (four mile) long tunnel, which leads underneath the southern part of the mighty Jostedal Glacier.

We next arrive in Fjærland where we shall visit the Norwegian glacier centre. After this experience we have the opportunity to enjoy lunch in Skei, and also another photo stop by the Bøya Glacier. We once again reach Utvik Mountain before returning to our ship.

TOUR NOTES: This tour involves some walking at the Glacier Centre. Please note this tour may not operate on all calls into Olden due to timing restrictions.
