Medieval Stave Churches in Norway
After all the hiking I did in Norway a couple of months ago, exploring the stave churches in Norway was the second highlight of the trip. I had never seen this type of churches (stavkyrkje) before and found them to be a neat ‘discovery’ for me out of this two-week trip. Why “stave”? Stave churches […]

Geiranger: Great Views and Waterfall
After a phenomenal and scenic ferry ride along the Geirangerfjord, I arrived in Geiranger. Our hotel was perched high up looking down to the town and the fjord – a perfect setting.

The final hike in Jotunheimen took us from Memurubu back to our starting point, Gjendesheim. Though a shorter hike, it still offered a good challenge!

Second to last day of our circuit hike in Jotunheimen National Park saw us head from Gjendebu to Memurubu along Lake Gjende and spectacular views.
