Latest Gudvangen hotel reviews
GeoV Says: The tiny village of Bakka is close to Gudvangen but probably most often seen from a boat on the Nærøyfjord, perhaps as part of the highly recommended 'Norway in a Nutshell' tour. The church at Bakka dates from only 1859 but is typical of the white, wooden 19th century...
evaanna Says: Gudvangen is one of the places where you can start your Norway in a Nutshell tour, which takes you along some of the most scenic routes in Norway. The other places are Flam, Voss, Bergen or Oslo. The trip includes rides on the Bergen Railway, the Flam Railway, boat trips on...
evaanna Says: The ferry takes you to Flam, where a train - the famous Flamsbana - is already waiting to take you to Myrdal. I don't suppose I need to describe the fascinating scenery as the train climbs the mountain track - you must have seen it in the tourist brochures wherever you live....
evaanna Says: Undredal is a small village on the Aurlandsfjord, about 17 km by road from Gudvangen.It is well worth a visit for its tiny church, the smallest church in regular use in Scandinavia. First built in 1147 and called St. Nicholas Chapel then, it was thoroughly restored and given...
evaanna Says: Watching boats come and go is my favourite pastime so we spent some time at the port while in Gudvangen. The boats ferry tourists from all over the world, so watching them too may be interesting. Some of them stay the night at the expensive hotel by the harbour. The souvenir...
The village between the mountains
evaanna Says: Gudvangen is situated on the Naeroyfjord, and the area of the port is the most interesting but touristy as well. Yet, busloads of tourists don't explore anything beyond the hotel and the souvenir shops at the port. If you have time, take a walk along the main and only...
evaanna Says: If you are anywhere near Gudvangen or Flam don't miss Stalheimskleiv. We came across it by a mere piece of luck on our way back from Gudvangen, following the signs for that place. The road we took was terrifying: extremely steep and with thirteen hairpin bends, all very very...
evaanna Says: The trip from Gudvangen by ferry continues to Aurlandsfjord, where the ferry turns right towards Flam. You could take a ferry that goes to Kaupanger on the Sognefjorden and then that is where it turns left. The contrast between the dark Naeroyfjord and the bright and sunny...
evaanna Says: Gudvangen is the perfect place from which to start a day trip to Myrdal and back. First, you must take a ferry to Flam along Naeroyfjord, a fantastic experience as it is the narrowest fjord in Norway and it must be hard to steer the large ferry in the narrow space between...
Vang Camping: Friendly and cosy campsite
evaanna Says: Vang is a small campsite about 900 m from Gudvangen in the Naeroydalen. The cabins are very nice and well-equipped, each of them different, with some original Norwegian decorations, verandas and grass growing on the roofs.The prices start at NOK 200 for a double room, 250...
Gudvangen Camping: At the foot of the mountains
evaanna Says: We spent two nights there to enable us to go on the boat trip to Flam and to have a little rest after all the driving we had done already on our tour. If you are on a budget or just don't like wasting your money, that or the Vang Camping nearby are the places to stay if you...
fomhuirean Says: On our way to the North, from Bergen to Aheim, we were facing a 450 km journey. We had planned the trip a bit more inland, so we could enjoy the Sognafjord.We scheduled to take the ferry in Gudvangen to Kaupanger. It was a excellent choice because, it gave us a 2 hours rest...
evaanna Says: The changing colours of Naeroydalen are amazing. The mountains are so steep and their ranges so close to each other that they let little light reach the bottom of the valley. But at sunset you can see a faerie of lights on the slopes, the source of which we tried to find out...

Q: I'm a little bit confused. I was planning to visit a vicking village in Gudvangen. I remember that I saw a note that it is open...
A: It seems to be the same thing, and not yet a physical reality. However, there is a Viking market there now (13th to 18th July). Sounds like it could be worth going to...
