Mount Ulriken is one of the biggest tourist attractions in Bergen, but we will take you on local trails to show you the beauty of the area. Few visitors find their way here, and we believe you will appreciate exploring off the beaten path while still experiencing Ulriken itself.

We visit the highest hiking point in Bergen, and take you off the beaten track and show you why the locals love this area so much. Even we as professionals always get the same feeling up here, the feeling of high mountains . We could just as well have been at Hardangervidda National Park, but the view stands out.
Note that tickets to bus and gondola are not included. We begin with a short 10-15 minute bus ride on the "Gondola Bus." From there, we take the gondola together to the top, 600 meters above sea level, where our mountain hike begins.
