Fløyen

A verdant mountain on the outskirts of the city of Bergen.

A stunning mountain with modern facilities, Fløyen is an unparalleled experience that can hardly be replicated elsewhere, giving you an intimate look at nature. Located right outside the city, Fløyen flaunts an easily accessible location that will entice even the staunchest urbanites. For those who prefer to skip the hike and go straight to the arresting views at the peak, Fløyen also features a funicular, a mountainside railway that takes you right to the top. Trekking up the western face of the mountain, the funicular offers you stunning views of the cityscape encroached by waters as a teaser of what is to come at the very top. Once you arrive, you can also treat yourself to the mountainside restaurants or frolic at the playground and obstacle course. If you cannot get enough of the beautiful natural scenery, Fløyen also hosts extensive trails for hiking and mountain biking. Enjoy yourself to your heart’s desire, as there is no place like Fløyen.
