Cruise Description |
Sail along Norway’s mythical fjords following in the footsteps of courageous Vikings during an exceptional journey between Bergen and Fredrikstad. During this 9-day cruise aboard Le Champlain, the mystical decors edged with charming villages are sure to surprise you
At each port of call on your trip, every guest will be able to choose one included activity from the selection offered by Ponant. During this cruise, admire the incredible panorama composed of waterfalls and craggy peaks from aboard the Flåm train, one of the steepest and most famous railways in the world, set off to explore the surroundings of Geiranger, including Mount Dalsnibba. The diversity of options on offer promises intense and varied experiences. (Find the full list of excursions under the Itinerary tab.)
Departing from Bergen, famous for its Hanseatic wharf which still bears some traces of the city's rich Viking past, your first stop will be Flam. Nestled in the heart of the Aurlandsfjord between verdant mountains, this picturesque village with colourful houses is home to the famous Flam Railway.
After cruising along Norway’s longest and deepest fjord, Sognefjord, you will sail one of the most mythical fjords in the Land of the Midnight Sun, Geirangerfjord. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is as inspiring as it is fascinating.
In Maloy, a lovely little town backing onto the Norwegian Sea, you will have the privilege of discovering enchanting decors of granite summits covered in a verdant coat, superb silvery sandy beaches, traditional red wooden houses…
Next, you will sail to Eidfjord. In the ancient glacial valley of the Hardanger Fjord, the steep mountains and roaring waterfalls, including the Voring Falls, among the highest in Europe, are an awesome display of nature.
In Stavanger, a small town with harmonious blend of old and modern styles, you will admire the wonderfully preserved fishermen's houses that date from the 18th century, before sailing to the famous Lysefjorden, bordered by granite cliffs.
You will then head towards the Sorlandet region, to enjoy the timeless charm and gentle climate of Kristiansand. Here, you will be able to stroll around the picturesque little streets, edged with typical wooden houses, and discover the town’s lively port.
Finally, you will reach Fredrikstad, the best-preserved fortified town in northern Europe and the end of an unforgettable trip. |
