We have a beautiful hiking area for short and long walks, including the sherpa stairs to the top finished in 2019.
One of the most popular hikes in Norway, Vidden, starts at Mount Ulriken and will lead you over to Mount Fløyen in 4-5 hours.
You can also hike up to the top of Ulriken in the terrain, or follow all the stairs. The hile takes about 1 hour up and another 1 hour down.
If you prefer you can also take the cable car up, but that is quite expensive. You are warned!

Museums
Main exhibition: Under Ground
Bryggens Museum’s main exhibit uses thousands of artifacts and modern historical and archaeological research to let you come closer to the everyday lives of the medieval people of Bergen and Western Norway. Runic inscriptions with gossip, poems and spells tells us about faith and love, while ceramics from Europe and the Middle-East shows an extensive and international trade network. The new exhibit also displays the unique Guddal-garment – a nearly thousand year old find, which is one of extremely few relatively intact pieces of Norwegian medieval clothing.
Very worth a visit, and the entrance fee is ok.

A breath of nostalgia!
In the 1800s Bergen was Europe’s biggest wooden city, a distinctive city environment with closely spaced wooden buildings, busy streets, markets and alleys. How did it look? What did people talk about?
At old Bergen open air museum you can experience some of this atmosphere, with houses from the eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Actors makes history come alive.
What did it look like? What did people talk about?
In the cobbled streets of the Old Bergen Museum, you are welcome to come into the houses and explore on your own, or maybe have a chat with one of the people who “live” here? In close proximity to the city center and scenic surroundings, you can meet both lords and servants from times gone by. You can peek in through the windows, enter the houses to look at exhibitions and historic interiors. Inside the house you will find information with brief information about the history of the houses.
In beautiful natural surroundings you can meet both masters and servants from the past. You can peek in windows, open doors, and walk into exhibitions and historical interiors. The museum’s role players help to bring the site to life and provide answers to some of the questions on how life could have been lived in Bergen one or two hundred years ago.
This museum is mainly outside, and is totally free.
