In evidenza
Join us on this 4-hour excursion to the amazing Briksdal Glacier. After driving through the small village of Olden, we continue on our way to Briksdal. We drive through the Olden Valley, passing the beautiful Olden Lake. When our bus reaches the Briksdal Inn, you can start the hike towards Briksdal Glacier, which is one of many arms of the famous Jostedal Glacier. The hike up to Briksdal Glacier takes you through a beautiful scenery surrounded by waterfalls and mountains. Finally, you will reach the viewpoint at the lake of the glacier. The first part of the hike is the hardest, and it gets gradually easier. The walk to the glacier normally takes around 45-60 minutes.

5Great experience.
Moderate effort hike up to the lake with great views along the way. The path is well prepared, 1.65 miles up and back with around 550’ of elevation gain.
4Well worth the visit.
Coach boarding a bit disorganised , due to the late arrival of the guide. Excellent commentary on the coach. Stunning hike to the Glacier with amazing views. Not too strenuous to walk. Incredible glacier and well worth the visit.
1What a rip off!
This was an absolute rip off. My first viator experience and this "tour" was just a very expensive bus ride to the free public glacier park. For $100+ per person, there was ZERO added value on the bus and when we got there he said, "see you in 2 hours". You can just take the bus for the same amount of time (and a lot less money) and explore on your own just the same. There's no special area that they take you to. It's already all open to the public and the glacier was absolutely gorgeous and free. To charge for this is despicable. On top of this, the guide himself, Denim, made distasteful, uncomfortable sexist remarks and he didn't even help people find the bus. Super disappointed in this entire experience.
5Beautiful scenery-would not skip this one!
Amazing tour, great guide. The hike is a bit strenuous but the payoff to the glacial lake is worth it!
5Well Worth the Money
We have now done this excursion twice direct. That is far cheaper than going through the cruise line. All is well organised, the bus picks you up by the ship and delivers you back there after you have walked up to the glacier. A recording on the bus tells you about the scenery as you travel to the glacier, then gives you clear instructions on arrival. The walk itself takes about 45 minutes and is not too strenuous. I have asthma and did it easily. If anything the walk back down is harder on the knees as there are one or two very steep areas. The troll cars would be a waste of money for anyone able bodied. The trip is well worth it. The scenery is awesome and unspoilt and each time we have done this walk we have seen something dffferent.
5Amazingly beautiful!
I was traveling with family and friends and this was the highlight of our vacation! The tour guide was friendly and so very helpful!

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.
