In general, Flam (or Flaam, or Flåm)  is a small place in Norway  which i visited 2 years ago, this was one of the places i really looking forward to visit (mainly since they have such great reputation, and their site is really great, but in general, yes, it is a great place, lovely fjord and some really nice hikes and amazing views – defiantly worth the trip.

The only thing i would advise you to avoid, is the train trip, it is a really expensive trip, and the views you see while riding the trains are not really worth the price – you see all these views and more from the village itself. Yes, you will see a nice waterfall, but you will get to see thousands of these while visiting Norway. Other than that, the train (due to  the fact its an historical train) is so slow so other than the money you will be spending 2 hours of precious Norway travel time.

In general, I didn’t really liked Oslo, its kind of a boring city in my opinion (maybe that because i arrived there right after visiting Stockholm which is really beautiful) but there are few really lovely spots. The Vigeland Park is defiantly one of them. This is a really nice park full with Sculpture of Gustav Vigeland, the really amazing thing is that it is really look like a live person, there expressions and poses looks so real.

This road is only about 8 KM or so but it is really unique. Just south of the city of Kristiansund, on road #64  the Atlantic road begins with some really amazing roads just few meters above the water. This is a short drive but be sure to stop where possible and check out the curves on the road.

This is probably one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited, when driving on the eagle road and seeing it from above you already see this place is really amazing, and once getting there and get some info about all the nice trails and view points in the area, it gets even better. This is a must visit location.
