  • Travelling in Norway, you often come across the sign 'Tourist Information. 100, 200 etc...... metres'. A little lost for ideas what to see next, you are overjoyed to see it. So you drive on looking for a tourist office but can't see it. A little disappointed, you just give up. But, after you have done this several times, their idea of tourist information dawns on you at last. It's just a board by the roadside with a description of the local attractions. Not that it's much use to you if you are a foreigner as in most cases the text is only in Norwegian.
    So you'd better collect all the leaflets and brochures you can get once you do get to a real tourist information centre. There may be none for miles around.

     The fjords have a magical touch suspended in clouds - how wonderful to see & excellent photo!!

     Outstanding vistas in this part of Norway! Your very useful tips also paint a very inviting picture of vacationing there! Using remote roads/ferries is something I would really enjoy. Thanks for this wonderful glimpse!

     great new tips ,Ewa. Maybe the horrible winding roads were worth suffering to reach these places. Sheep on the road are common in Scotland too. Your husband deserves a medal- thirteen hairpin bends!!!!
