    We are going to Norway from the US later this month and planing a several days road trip from Alesund to Bergen, including the Loen area. So this vid was extremely helpful! Thank you!!

    I just discovered your family's videos. GREAT JOB! Question: I assume you guys rented a car, right? Where did you start your trip with this car? and did you return the car back at the same place? (Again, I *just* discovered your wonderful videos, so I don't know what your whole trip plan was.) THANKS 🙂

    Thanks Keith. We actually used our own car for this trip, starting and ending in Oslo. In 12 days we went Oslo, Lillehammer (Hunderfossen Family Park), Rondane, Geiranger, Loen, Flåm, Gol (Bear Park in Flå), Oslo. Long trip, but lots of nice things to see.

    Hi Erik! Really useful and funny video! I'm planning my visit trough fjords in april. May I ask you when you did this trip? Will it be too cold in end of April? I'm planning to hike on Skala Mount (1800m) I can't understand if it will be too cold... do you have any tip for me? Thanks :)

    Hi, we did the trip in the end of July. In April it might be more snow in the higher areas, but I am not sure for your destination. As for the cold, its only to wear warm clothes, no problem 😊.

    All glaciers are available, but you'd be crazy to do them without a guide as it's extremely dangerous. People have lost their life not respecting the warning signs to NOT walk onto the glaciers.

    Not quite sure about Loen, but the general rule in Norway is that you can camp as long as it is 150 meters from nearest house and only for max 2 nights. But there might be local regulations in addition. On the high mountain areas far away from buildings you can camp longer.
