After only two and a half weeks, Dan and I came to the same conclusion: Norway is easily one of the most beautiful countries we have ever visited. Having traveled to over thirty countries together, we feel like that’s saying a lot. But don’t take our word for it—let these Norway pictures speak for themselves!

But first, an introduction to Norway. 

Norway is an outdoor lover’s paradise. The scenery in Norway is dramatic, mainly because it is a land of fjords; the staggering juxtaposition between the snowy mountains and crystal clear water never gets old. But the beauty isn’t only for a single snapshot—it envelops you, extending on for as far as the eye can see. In Norway, you’re immersed entirely in the magnificence of nature. From imposing glaciers to rugged coastlines to vibrant green mountains, the undeniable allure of Norway seems too good to be true at times. 

Norway’s villages and towns are just as charming, with their colorful wooden houses, pedestrian-only streets, chic cafes, and distinctly cool cosmopolitan flair.

You can read more about Norway in our other details blog posts, including travel guides to the Lofoten Islands (an unmissable paradise in the Arctic)Bergen and Trondheim, and iconic Pulpit Rock. But before you start planning your ultimate Norway travel itinerary, we wanted to get you excited with a bit of eye candy. We’re relatively sure it will make you want to get on a plane for Norway today.
