You step out of a Bergen hotel into clean, cold air and the hush of fjord country—your private driver already waiting with a low, friendly greeting. The road unspools through steep-sided valleys, past rivers that seem to hurry you along, until steel and timber appear: the Stegastein platform jutting into the sky, Aurlandsfjord spread beneath like a deep blue wound.
