This morning, travel by private vehicle to the village of Loen, tucked at the eastern end of Nordfjord – one of Norway’s most picturesque fjords. When you arrive, ride the Loen Skylift – one of the steepest cable cars in the world, soaring from the fjord’s edge to Mount Hoven at 1011 m. From the summit, take in the views of glaciers, peaks and the glassy Nordfjord below. Then set out on a guided hike along well-marked trails, offering views over the fjords, mountains and several tiny villages.
