Norwegian Fjords Bank Holiday Break

Stretching over 66 nautical miles from the westernmost point in Norway, overlooking the Sunnmøre Alps, to Jostedalsbreen, the largest glacier in mainland Europe, picturesque Nordfjord has postcard-perfect ice-blue waters framed by towering peaks covered in lush greenery. As your ship navigates into Innvikfjord, a narrow branch of Nordfjord, the landscape becomes fairytale-like, with the changing colours of forested hillsides leading down to tranquil waters, cascading waterfalls, and remote villages and farms dotted along the fjord edge. Sailing along these fjords in summer also offers chances to spot vibrant apple orchards from the decks of your ship.

A scenic cruise alongside Hornelen offers the opportunity to get closer to Norway's highest sea cliff. Standing at a height of 860m, it rises steeply above the Nordfjord and has been used for centuries as a landmark for passing ships. It is said that a troll lives in the northeast corner of the mountain, an area known as Juratinden by local Norwegians.

Sail into the serene beauty of Romsdalsfjorden, one of Norway’s most picturesque, longest and cleanest fjords, framed by the majestic peaks and waterfalls of the Romsdalsalpene Mountains, which tower over lush green valleys and charming waterside villages. As your ship glides through this majestic fjord, you’ll be treated to views of quaint coastal villages and dramatic mountain landscapes that seem to rise straight from the sea. Along the way, you might glimpse the famous Rauma Railway snaking through the cliffs, or the iconic Trollveggen, Europe’s tallest vertical rock face, standing proudly as a testament to nature’s grandeur.
