4. Epic Hike to Jendemsfjellet
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1 reviews
Jendamsfjellet top is 633 m.a.s.l. with an amazing 360 degree view over the fjords and mountains. The first part of the way takes you along the back of the mountain, which is quite steep at some points. There might also be some wet and damp parts, so you need to have good hiking shoes. After around 20 minutes the path will be easier, and you will walk in a forest for a while. After you come out from the forest you will start the steepest part toward the peak. Already at this part you will see some breathtaking views which will be even more spectacular on the top. We will walk with slow pace and take some breaks on the way to rest.
Inclusions: Sandwich, apple or banana, water, tea or coffee

This was my first yoga + hiking retreat and I would definitely book again with Pille - she was such a great yoga instructor and guide too. We started off our days with yoga in the morning, having breakfast together and then setting off for hikes during the day and having a meal together in the evening. It was a very nice routine and where we stayed in Molde was a short walk from the yoga studio so the location was perfect for this. In yoga I had the opportunity to correct my postures and poses and learnt more about the styles and technique. The trip is also a great opportunity to meet other likeminded people and enjoy nature and hikes with new people, I would recommend to anyone looking for a balanced, outdoors trip

We Traveled to Norway in 2020 and were keen to have a Day Kayaking on the Fjords. We contacted Norway AdvenTURes as we couldn't find tour dates to match our holiday plans. This was no problem, they set up a private tour for us, provided directions and arranged everything for our party of 6. Communication from Anne was excellent. The Kayaking experience was great, the views into the mountains sitting on the Kayak were amazing and Roger gave us lots of interesting information about the area, walks and life on the Fjords. All the required kit was provided for us and we felt safe and would recommend Norway AdvenTURes.

(This experience occurred in August 2018, which was not offered in the drop down list.) If you are a photographer, this is the BEST way to see Dalsnibba and the beautiful scenery on the way to the summit. If you take a bus, (1) it doesn't stop and (2) you don't get to experience the sights and sounds of a beautiful place. The day that we went was cold and rainy, and I'll warn you that there's no heater in the electric vehicle. However, the experience was one that I'll never forget or regret. After a short, but informative, orientation at the station, you take off for the summit. I was warned to not punch the accelerator to the maximum on the ascent, as there is enough charge in the battery to reach the summit at a moderate speed, but not full speed (there's a gauge on the dash to advise power usage and storage). The vehicle partially recharges as you coast on the descent.

Amazing day trip! Local Trips was great and as I was the only one signed up I got a private tour! Covid times led the sights and locations to not be over crowded which pretty fantastic. My guide, Trond, was wonderful and we went at my pace. Super worth it, could not be happier with this trip.

We initially though to rent some kayaks, but don't have so much experience so we booked onto the 7 sisters tour to take advantage of having a local guide show us around and we were not disappointed. The kayak center is right in town just a minutes walk from the tourist info office - handy. We met our very personable guide who gave us some simple clear tips to make the paddling easy. The boats and paddle gear were in good shape - very stable double kayaks which was perfect for our family group (couple of teenagers). Plenty of time on the tour for photos and getting the detailed histories of the fjord farms. Amazing where people used to live on these cliffs tops above our paddle route. Recommend taking a guided tour. Our guide had great humor keeping us entertained, and we got many tips to keep us safe and make the paddling easier. The kids loved it, with our oldest boy saying afterwards that he wanted to be a kayak guide... kids! Geiranger kayak center also have a shorter tour if you're tight on time or not so fit. We really enjoyed the tour. A great activity which we'll remember.

I really can't say I've got to grips with Norway after my recent Covid secure trip there up the ffjirds on a cruise ship with other sufferers of my particular condition. One small issue is it's always said that all Norwegians speak English but I definitely met several who hadn't a clue what I was talking about when ordering pork chops on one of our excursions inland to Innlanden so that aspect was disappointing. Also I learned that a Smurfasbord is a kind of buffet similar to the English buffet but with fewer items from the yellow food groups such as our much loved crisps and cheese. Mr Gudmunjohansennn the ships croupier talked me through it in impeccable Norwegian so I had to deduce what he was saying from his admirable skill at pointing at things and either smiling or frowning. Was glad to get home to Sharon and normality.
