Follow in the footsteps of the Norwegian kings to the king of fjords, through some of the country's most magnificent landscapes. Sogn is one of Norway's foremost hiking areas, and from the historic King's Road to the Sognefjord – Norway's largest – awaits a week filled with contrasting nature experiences. You hike through lush valleys, past old summer farms and stave churches, and enjoy views of both plunging fjords and snow-capped peaks. The journey culminates in Utladalen, where the mighty Vettisfossen plunges 275 meters down into the valley. Thanks to low elevations and early snowmelt, this is one of the few fjord hikes that can be experienced as early as early summer. A rich hiking trip that combines nature experiences, cultural history and genuine Norwegian environments.

Dinner
The journey begins with a bus trip from Oslo to Husum in Lærdal. Here you land directly in the authentic Norwegian environment by staying the first two nights at a historic hotel dating back to the 1800s. The King's Road is just a short walk away and depending on arrival time there's an opportunity to stretch your legs with a short walk in the surroundings before dinner is served. Here you get a first taste of the landscape that has made Sogn one of Norway's most beloved hiking areas.
Level and accommodation
The hike mainly follows gravel roads, forest paths and mountain trails. The terrain varies from easy cultural trails to more demanding fjord trails with long ascents and descents. The daily stages are 5–13 km with 230–370 meters of elevation gain per day. One day offers greater ascents. The trip suits experienced hikers with normal to good fitness who want to combine cultural history with classic Norwegian fjord nature.
You stay at three traditional hotels with a great location near the hiking trails. The accommodations offer comfortable rooms with private bathrooms and a genuine Norwegian atmosphere. One hotel is located in a historic wooden building by the fjord, another dates back to the 1800s, and the third is situated right by the waters of the Sognefjord. Overall, the accommodation corresponds to our Comfort level.
