A fabulous experience - On reaching the top where the glacier is we felt so proud of our achievement.It was a very steep climb but well worth it once you got to the glacier lake.We took lots of pictures of the beautiful scenery and rock foundations and a selfie with the mountain and glacier full of snow behind us.The weather was beautiful the week we were in Norway .There was a lovely shop at the base with a cafe and plenty of clean toilets .We were on a cruise but we booked the bus on the Quay side which was really easy and at least a third of the price charged by Cruise ship

Awesome Glacial Tour - Our driver met us at the cruise ship dock and gave us an explanation of what we should expect, and approx times. The drive up to the drop-off point was a lovely journey through the local landscape. The initial hike up the trail got increasingly easier, but, WOW, what views. large waterfalls and other white water accompanied us all the way to the glacial lake and stunning view of the glacier. Gentle walk back down to the Cafe, and gift shop and we met up with our driver at the appointed time and had a relaxing drive back to Olden

Spectacular views, exhilarating landscapes - Took the coach through Olden, up through the valley of picturesque lakes, green pastures and pretty houses to Briksdal glacier. The terminus is effectively a visitor centre with 2 cafés, shops, toilets etc. We hired a “troll car” - a big chauffeured open buggy - to take us 75% of the way. The walk is lovely but steep. Then went up to the bottom of the glacier where meltwater enters the raging stream. The views all around are spectacular.

Olden, Norway Glacier - Our excursion to the Glacier was perfect! We met our tour operator Elisabet right at the terminal. We took a very comfortable bus to the base of the glacier where we then hiked for about 45 mins to the glacier. The walk was not too strenuous and very beautiful. Elisabet was very knowledgeable and ensured that we had a very enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend this tour with Elisabet!!

Lovely Day! - Beautiful hike. Be prepared for hills by layering. You will get warm, but up top it’s cold by the glacier.

Beautiful! Order troll car days before - Great views of the glacier. The walkway is gravel and does have a pretty good incline there. Wear layers as you will shed some during the day. If you want to take the troll car - order days ahead because there were none available when we got there. The complete hike (to/fro) took us 2 hours with brief stops. The guide gave us some history but I would have enjoyed more. It was just a lovely day.
