This tour starts out in Oslo with a scenic 6 hour train ride north along the Gudbrandsdals Valley and over the spectacular Dovrefjell Mountains to Trondheim. Along the way you will pass Lillehammer, site of the 1994 Winter Olympics, Dombås and Dovrefjell, at over 3000 feet above sea level, famous for it’s rich fauna and wild life including reindeer, elk and musk ox.
Trondheim is Norway’s third largest city and the former capital city. It is large enough to offer many activities and cultural events but small enough to be traversed by foot. The old city section is a must, with it’s charming old houses, shops and excellent restaurants. After two nights in Trondheim the tour continues with an overnight cruise on the famous Hurtigruten Coastal Voyage to Bergen, the gateway to the fjords
