Recommendations on 10 days in Norway fall 2025

We have about 10 days to spend in Norway starting from Oslo 9.25 and leaving from Bergen 10.8.25.

Should we try to fly up to Lofoten? It looks beautiful, but I am aware it is the end of the season. Or should we just try to stay south?

I should add we have a cabin in SE Alaska in the summer and love more remote places versus cities.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Great question about rent a car or stay on public transport. We are in the planning stages. We have a month in Scandinavia, so starting in Helsinki and ending up in Bergen.

We have never been on a cruise ship - my husband is a commercial fisherman in Alaska and time on boats can be a thing - but we are open to the best way to get around!

We would love any advice and are so looking forward to this adventure. Current plan:

  • Helsinski (2 days)
  • Ferry to Tallinn (3 nights)
  • Ferry to Stockholm (add 1 night)
  • Stockholm's Archipelago??? Sandhamn?? (2 nights)
  • Train from Stockholm to Kalmar, Sweden (4 nights)
  • Overnight ferry from Copenhagen to Oslo
  • Oslo (2 nights)
  • 10 day window - Fly to Lofoten then Alesund, etc. end in Bergen - OR Alesund< Gieranger Belstrand, Flam, Bergen Thanks everyone for your thoughts! Again, we are more happy in nature than city.
