The best way to see Norway is from the air. Sightseeing flights are available from all the major cities,enabling visitors to see the attractions of the country at their most spectacular. Fjords were originally glacially carved valleys. But as the ice melted,these 1 were filled by rising sea water,creating these dramatic landscapes. The Hardanger fjord is the second longest in Norway and with its glacier at the top,the most picturesque. Only from this height can you truly appreciate the enormous scale of the fjord and glacier.
This vast natural formation is one of many in Norway but it's a rare sight you'll never forget. The glacier at Hardanger is actually formed of 3 separate glaciers which together measure 220 square kilometers.
In the last few years,walking on glaciers has become extremely popular amongst locals and tourists alike. A simple tour to the glacier Bodalsbreen in the area around stream lasts about 5 hours and begins with an hour hiking through the Josterdalsbreen National Park. The Bodalsbreen is part of this national park.
The ice-cold crystal-clear water melted from the glacier form 2 that flow into the valley. This is Norway's wilderness at its best. The glacial valleys create some extraordinary sights. It's the first time this tourist has attempted to walk on ice. Special knowledge isn't necessary. All he needs is the right outdoor gear---the most important thing for any trip onto the ice.
