Once you arrive at the Briksdal Inn, a beautiful track surrounded by waterfalls and mountains will lead you to the viewpoint at the glacier lake, from where you will be able to enjoy this amazing natural treasure.

  • 5Olden Norway

    Again on our Norwegian cruise this is just about Olden not the tour.its nested at the southern end of the Nordfjord at the entrance to the Oldendale valley has superb coastline towering mountains and the biggest glacier on mainland Europe, Jostedalsbreen. We took a trip on a coach to the waterfall and rapids,it's expensive for a couple of hours but Norway definitely not a cheap place.make sure you have your credit card as no one seems to deal in cash,I have to say this was the highlight stop on the cruise

    The walk up to the glacier was breathtaking, quite steep in places but not too difficult as the paths were very stable.

  • 5Don't Miss This!

    This one shouldn't be missed! Berta was an excellent guide and Norway Excursions made it so easy especially when our ship docked at Loen, not Olden. We were concerned about meeting up but they had two guides, one at each place(about 6 miles from each other). The scenery was spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed this tour. There is no need to go with the on board excursions when a company like this is handling the details. The icing on the cake was a delightful guide whom we really enjoyed meeting. Thank you, Norway Excursions for a most memorable day!

  • 5Amazing location

    Amazing part of Norway. The town is so picturesque and the hike to the glacial lake is pleasant and not too difficult. They also have “troll cars” which are basically ATVs that you can take up or back for a fee a good option if mobility or strenuous exercise are issues for you. The guide was great and the bus transport took us by so many scenic areas on the way to the glacier park. The bus was super- almost brand new. Great place to visit and take a hike.

  • 4Good tour. Pickup and...

    Good tour. Pickup and drop-off is at the pier just where you disembark. I booked a separate Troll car to coincide with the timing of this tour. Overall everything worked great. Views are terrific!

About Skjolden

Skjolden is a quiet village at the head of the Lustrafjord, an arm of the Sognefjord, with high mountains, glaciers and the Sognefjellet road.

Skjolden lies at the innermost end of the Lustrafjord, itself a branch of the Sognefjord, Norway's longest fjord, with steep mountainsides rising on every side. It is a small village of a few hundred people, with a pier, a church, and farms on the lake and fjord shores. The philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein came here to think and write in the early twentieth century, and later had a hut built above the lake.
