Bergen is the gateway to Norway’s famous fjords! With seven peaks and seven fjords of its own, it’s an unusually picturesque setting for a major city, once Norway’s capital. Bergen’s past as a major medieval port is perfectly preserved in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Bryggen, but even today’s busy city centre is just a short journey from some of the most spectacular natural wonders in Norway.
Bergen is the obvious choice for a Geography trip, being just a stone’s throw from excellent examples of glaciers, fjords, and waterfalls. It also offers fantastic opportunities for Science students to visit a working geothermal power plant and uncover the effects of climate change at the Norwegian Nature Centre.
Go on an exciting adventure deep into some of Norway’s most beautiful scenery. Spend some time exploring the glaciers and lakes in the Norwegian national parks and head out onto the alpine plateau which is home to Europe’s largest herd of reindeer!
