Do not miss the chance to get acquainted with the most beautiful city of the Norwegian Kingdom. Our Amazing city walk feels more like a friendly promenade: • “... there was no street under your feet 50 years ago as these buildings were surrounded by water, like in Venice…. • ... this beautiful area of Norwegian Venice was specially designed for fishermen. Take a closer look, those hokes still remain as a reminder of the tough times. Let's go and discover what's inside those houses nowadays... • “…If you do not except the challenge to climb 418 steps to the very top of Axla mountain, then follow me, I will show you one view point where you can admire the city from a bird’s eye view…” As we walk, chat and laugh, you discover this phoenix city, which rose from the ashes and today surprises us with flowers on the facades, encourages you to praise its beauty left and right.

Jendamsfjellet top is 633 m.a.s.l. with an amazing 360 degree view over the fjords and mountains. The first part of the way takes you along the back of the mountain, which is quite steep at some points. There might also be some wet and damp parts, so you need to have good hiking shoes. After around 20 minutes the path will be easier, and you will walk in a forest for a while. After you come out from the forest you will start the steepest part toward the peak. Already at this part you will see some breathtaking views which will be even more spectacular on the top. We will walk with slow pace and take some breaks on the way to rest.
Inclusions: Sandwich, apple or banana, water, tea or coffee

This was my first yoga + hiking retreat and I would definitely book again with Pille - she was such a great yoga instructor and guide too. We started off our days with yoga in the morning, having breakfast together and then setting off for hikes during the day and having a meal together in the evening. It was a very nice routine and where we stayed in Molde was a short walk from the yoga studio so the location was perfect for this. In yoga I had the opportunity to correct my postures and poses and learnt more about the styles and technique. The trip is also a great opportunity to meet other likeminded people and enjoy nature and hikes with new people, I would recommend to anyone looking for a balanced, outdoors trip

I really can't say I've got to grips with Norway after my recent Covid secure trip there up the ffjirds on a cruise ship with other sufferers of my particular condition. One small issue is it's always said that all Norwegians speak English but I definitely met several who hadn't a clue what I was talking about when ordering pork chops on one of our excursions inland to Innlanden so that aspect was disappointing. Also I learned that a Smurfasbord is a kind of buffet similar to the English buffet but with fewer items from the yellow food groups such as our much loved crisps and cheese. Mr Gudmunjohansennn the ships croupier talked me through it in impeccable Norwegian so I had to deduce what he was saying from his admirable skill at pointing at things and either smiling or frowning. Was glad to get home to Sharon and normality.

Sunrise is a magnificent time of day. It is an awakening of the planet, birds, trees, and wildlife. It is always a new beginning. If you have romance in your soul, witnessing this beautiful daybreak can bring joy into your mundane life. It doesn't cost anything to watch a sunrise. Sun-gazing is an old method of healing. Our ancestors worshiped the sun for many reasons. Gratitude. You are alive another day. What? "Big deal," you say? Waking up is a gift. Being grateful just to be alive shifts your perspective. Each day is a beautiful gift. Be grateful. Say thank you to the sun for rising on this gorgeous day.
Inclusions: Sandwich and water, coffee or tea.

The Atlantic Road has National Tourist Route status, and the entire stretch between Bud and Kristiansund is one continuous experience packed with coastal scenery, culture and history. The road that crosses this “infamous stretch of ocean” was hailed as the world’s best road trip by the British newspaper The Guardian. In 2006. The 8.3 km (5 mile) road, with 8 bridges of a total length of 891 meters, is built on several small islands and skerries, and is spanned by eight bridges and several landfills. Sjurvarden (Stemshesten) is the mountain that stretches out to the sea, giving a powerful view of Hustadvika, the Atlantic Ocean and the coastal landscape from Sunnmøre in the west and Smøla on Nordmøre in the north. The trip is a combination of activity like hiking and walking, relaxing on the beautiful beach and driving the senic road admiring the costline of Norway.
Inclusions: Sandwich, apple or banana, water, Air-conditioned vehicle
