Independent Train Tours and Travel Packages In norway.nordicvisitor.com HARDANGERFJORD IN A NUTSHELL ITINERARY DAY 1 DAY 1: ARRIVAL & WELCOME TO THE FJORDS Arrive to Bergen Airport. For an easy and comfortable way to get to your hotel in central Bergen, we are happy to arrange a private transfer for you. Despite being Norway’s second largest city and a major cruise port, Bergen has retained the atmosphere and charm of a small town. Here you will find the old wharf of Bryggen - a UNESCO World Heritage site, centuries-old houses, a vibrant fish and flower market and an interesting range of museums. For a good overview of Bergen, take the one-hour “mini-train” sightseeing tour through city centre, which includes sights like Maria Church, the Rosenkrantz Tower and King Håkon’s Hall as well as a panoramic view of the city from the Fjellveien Road. If you arrive early, we recommend getting the Bergen Card, which provides free travel on all public transport, free admission to museums and discounts on other attractions, sightseeing tours, restaurants and shops. Spend the night in Bergen. Attractions: Bergen DAY 2 DAY 2: WONDROUS WESTERN FJORDS & ADVENTURE Today you will be heading toward the queen of the western fjords in Norway, the Hardangerfjord. You will be starting your trip with a train ride to the adventure capital of Norway – Voss. From Voss you will board an hour long bus that takes you to Ulvik, from which a boat transports you into the innermost parts of the fjord towards Eidfjord. From town, you can join a sightseeing bus ride up to Vøringsfossen, with its majestic 182 metre fall, cascading from the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. Along the way, you will make a stop at the Hardangervidda Nature Center. The trip returns to Eidfjord after a stop by the waterfall, giving you the afternoon to explore at your leisure. You will spend the night in Eidfjord. Departure from Bergen: 08:43 Arrival in Eidfjord after sightseeing tour: 14:20 Attractions: Eidfjord, Hardangerfjord, Ulvik, Voss, Vøringfossen 1/2 DAY 3 DAY 3: LUSH FJORDS & RETURN TO BERGEN Today you will be spending the morning at your leisure in Eidfjord. If the weather is nice you can choose to relax at the beach by the fjord or hike some trails surrounding the town. In the afternoon, it is time to continue with your Hardangerfjord in a Nutshell journey as you board your boat from Eidfjord to Norheimsund. From Norheimsund you will board a bus that will take you to the last stretch of the journey to Bergen where you can enjoy views of the lush fjord. Return to Bergen in the evening, where you will spend one final night in Norway. Departure from Eidfjord: 14:40 Arrival in Bergen: 19:05 Note: Location of accommodation for night 2 can be changed to Voss, Ulvik or Norheimsund. This will of course rearrange the travel route slightly. Attractions: Norheimsund DAY 4 DAY 4: LEISURE TIME & DEPARTURE For transportation to Bergen-Flesland Airport, you can take the airport bus (Flybussen) from one of the various departure points in city centre or you can take a taxi directly from your hotel. If your flight is in the afternoon, you will have the opportunity to do some last-minute shopping, visit one of Bergen‘s many museums or enjoy a relaxing lunch at a café after this amazing journey. Whatever your needs, we are here to help. If you have any questions about our packages or services, please do not hesitate to contact us.

  • Meir Sjøaure I Vassdraga Kring Hardangerfjorden Restaurering Og Habitatforbetrande Tiltak I Sjøaurevassdrag Langs Hardangerfjorden
    Meir sjøaure i vassdraga kring Hardangerfjorden Restaurering og habitatforbetrande tiltak i sjøaurevassdrag langs Hardangerfjorden. Sven-Helge Pedersen «Sjøaure Hardangerfjord» - for meir sjøaure i vassdraga kring Hardangerfjorden Ein interesseorganisasjon for grunneigarlag, jakt- og fiskelag i dei 10 kommunane kring Hardangerfjorden. Overordna mål å arbeide for å styrke lokale bestandar av laks og sjøaure i fjord og vassdrag. Sjøauren – ein historisk viktig art for Hardangerbygdene A. F. Mockler-Ferryman si reiseskildring “In the Northman’s Land” (London 1896): Om Eide/Granvin: There is very fair salmon and trout fishing, and, when the river is not let, the guests at the hotel can try their luck, though, owing to the numerous salmon traps, the chances are against the angler taking any large salmon, but, still, the sea-trout are not to be despised.. Om Eidfjord: ..This, then, is the time for the sportsman, who, with a boatman af any intelligence and with the proper minnows, should manage to kill a goodly number of sea-trout in the afternoon. .. Apart from salmon fishing, I know of no greater excitement (in a mild way) than to try conclusions with a heavy sea-trout and a light rod. Tiltak for å betre sjøaureproduksjonen i 28 vassdrag Rådgivende Biologer rapport 1781 - 2013 “Forslag til tiltak for sjøaure i utvalgte vassdrag ved Hardangerfjorden” ✓ I 2012 og 2013 vart 28 anadrome vassdrag i 8 kommunar langs Hardangerfjorden undersøkt med fokus på inngrep og status av sjøaurehabitat. ✓ Inngrepa vart vurdert etter vannforskrifta. ✓ 104 km vassdrag er undersøkt langs Hardangerfjorden for å kartlegge inngrep og status i leveområde for sjøaure. ✓ Resultatet er ei liste med rundt 90 tiltak for å betre produksjonen av sjøaure langs fjorden.

  • Monitoring Anthropogenic Activity in the Hardangervidda Wild Reindeer Range Possible Applications of Crowdsourced Strava-Data in Remote Settings
    Faculty of Biosciences, Fisheries and Economics. Department of Arctic and Marine Biology. Monitoring anthropogenic activity in the Hardangervidda wild reindeer range Possible applications of crowdsourced Strava-data in remote settings Vilde Grøthe Holtmoen Master’s thesis in Biology, BIO-3950, May 2021 Preface This master thesis (60ECTS) was written as the final thesis of the study-program Masters in Biology at University of Tromsø (UiT), faculty of Biosciences, Fisheries and Economics, department of Arctic and Marine Biology. My supervisors has been Audun Stien (UiT) and Vegard Gundersen (NINA, dep. Lillehammer). Maps showing habitat suitability for wild reindeer on Hardangervidda in summer used in this thesis, was created by Manuela Panzacchi and Bram Van Moorter for NINA’s project Renewable Reindeer (RenewableReindeer (nina.no)) and will be published in an upcoming report (Tema-rapport) for NINA in 2021 (Panzacchi et.al., 2021, in press). Methods, analyses and results are previously published in Panzacchi et.al., 2015a. NINA had the main idea for this thesis and has contributed with the material for my analyses such as raw data from automatic counters, Strava-data and GPS-data from GPS-collared wild reindeer. 2 Abstract Seen in light of the increasing interest of nature-based tourism and recreational outdoor activities in Norway the last decades (Reimers, Eftestøl & Colman, 2003; Haukeland, Grue & Veisten, 2010), spatiotemporal information on human activity in remote areas and knowledge about how this activity may affect wildlife and nature is a crucial part of a knowledge-based management (Gundersen et.al., 2011, p.14; Gundersen, Strand & Punsvik, 2016, p.166). Hardangervidda is the largest national park in mainland Norway and is also home to the largest population of wild mountain reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus), a specie of international responsibility in management and conservation and recently added to the Norwegian red list (Kjørstad et.al., 2017, p.26; Artsdatabanken, 2021).
