Why You Should Take a Trip to Norway

Icy glaciers, glorious mountain peaks and endless breath taking views of isolated rugged terrain, if you’re wanting to experience some of the most awe-inspiring beauty that the natural world has to offer, Norway is the only place to visit.  Whether you’re an adventure seeking explorer or on a quest for culture wanting to experience Scandi city life, Norway has the perfect balance of the two. Here are the main reasons why you should take a trip to Norway:

The Fjords

The Norwegian Fjords are the iconic cobalt blue lakes surrounded by stunning green cliffs often pictured on postcards as the symbol of Norway. The wild and sublime Norwegian landscape feels like its own ginormous universe unconnected from the rest of the world when you’re sailing around the lakes and are a must visit destination for those seeking the ultimate in natural peace and tranquillity.

Oslo

If you’re more interested in experiencing Scandinavian city life and looking for a more cosmopolitan break, a trip to the country’s metropolis Oslo is definitely worth a visit. Although notoriously expensive, Oslo has the ultimate Scandi chic vibe. Its minimalist architecture is surrounded by beautiful scenery, making it a really unique city. Packed with cute cafes, great museums such as National Museum of Contemporary Art and an ever growing live music scene, you’re sure to be impressed.

The Northern Lights

The most famous reason tourists tend to visit Norway is to see the incredible Northern Lights. The natural phenomenon of the Aurora Borealis  which lights up the skies in an array of dazzling colours between October and March are a definite Norwegian highlight. Most people head to the North of the country for the best chance of seeing them in Alta. You can visit Alta with Wexas for an amazing price and you’ll get a guide to help you best find the most spectacular views of the lights.

The Polar Night

In the very North of Norway in the archipelago that is Svalbard, between the months of November and February you can experience the polar night. Another natural wonder, the whole of Svalbard is completely without daylight for a whole three months-a unique experience as a result of Norway’s geographical location so close to the Arctic Circle. Most residents tend to enjoy the island for a few years then move on due to the extreme climate but it’s a place definitely worth visiting to experience something so different to our normal life.

These are just a few reasons why you should take a trip to Norway now to experience some of the most incredible natural sights the world has to offer.
