Hardangerfjord opens as a long water corridor south-east of Bergen: steep green walls, farm patches on the shelves, and enough length that an hour aloft still feels like one continuous line. From a Bergen seaplane you meet it after the city harbour falls away, so the fjord is the subject of the longer flights rather than a distant smear on the horizon. The water holds your eye for miles of cliffs and farm shelves before the path turns toward ice or, on the private circuit, toward the rock tongue beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Norway’s second-longest fjord is the core of the shared Bergen Hardangerfjord and Folgefonna Glacier 60-Minute Seaplane Tour<\/a>: about 60 minutes in a Cessna 206, from NOK 4,650 per person. It is a shared flight for up to four passengers, and it goes ahead with at least three tickets booked; ages 2 and up. Live dates show when you book. The private Bergen Trolltunga, Hardangerfjord and Folgefonna 80-Minute Seaplane Tour<\/a> keeps the same water on the way to Folgefonna<\/a> and the rock tongue, from NOK 22,233 per private flight for up to four. Both longer tickets give Hardangerfjord real minutes in the window, not a brief crossing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The short Bergen Fjord and Mountain 35-Minute Seaplane Tour<\/a> stays on the city harbour, the northern archipelago, Osterfjord, and the mountains around Bergen, with Ulriken<\/a> on the return. It is not sold as a Hardangerfjord tour. If you want this fjord framed for most of the flight, the 60-minute shared ticket is the match. If you also need Trolltunga<\/a> from the air, the private 80-minute Experience continues past the glacier to the ledge above Lake Ringedal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You do not land on a Hardanger shore, dock at a village, or step onto Folgefonna from these tickets. There is no intermediate stop. Every Bergen flightseeing flight returns to the Sandviken seaplane base for a water landing. Weather in western Norway can hide the fjord walls in low cloud even when the city harbour looks fine. If the flight is cancelled for weather, you get a full refund. Cancel at least 24 hours before the flight and you also get a full refund. Live checkout restates those rules when you book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Folgefonna<\/a> sits on the same 60- and 80-minute paths as Hardangerfjord and is Norway’s third-largest glacier, about 1,700 metres high. Trolltunga and western Hardangervidda appear only on the private circuit. Ulriken<\/a> and Bergen Fishmarket<\/a> close the shorter city circuit and frame the return on the longer ones. Together they make the Bergen<\/a> hub a clear ladder: city and mountains first, then fjord and glacier, then the private rock-tongue flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Flights leave Sandviken at Kristiansholm 8, 5035 Bergen, by the Fisheries Museum pier. Walk to the end of the pier to the seaplane office. Arrive 15 minutes before departure when you arrange your own transport; optional minibus pickup is available on request. Weight caps on the Cessna 206 are 340 kg total passengers and 120 kg per person. Book the 60-minute Hardangerfjord and Folgefonna Glacier tour on the Bergen<\/a> hub when this fjord is the subject you came for.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"class_list":["post-7989","highlights","type-highlights","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"sub_title":"","location":7971},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights\/7989","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/highlights"}],"acf:post":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7971"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7989"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
