As the sun returns to rejuvenate the Norwegian shores the temperatures begin to rise as life returns to the land. Days become longer and Springtime colours break out across the landscape as the Arctic grip recedes.
During the course of the voyage you may see the friendly thaw of winter in the south, to stormy winter in the north. From metre high snowdrifts with sprinklings of green grass to roaring waterfalls of meltwater and bird cliffs standing like rocky skyscrapers, full of flying and nesting life. Spring in Norway is a beautiful adventure, a quiet explosion of life, smells, colours and light.
Three seasons in one tripDuring our trip we can experience three seasons - from full Winter in the north, changing to Spring, and then almost Summer as we head down south.ContrastsThere are strong contrasts between the northern and southern parts of Norway.WaterfallsNorwegian waterfalls are majestic, tall, powerful, and abundant. During Spring, the melting snow makes the waterfalls an even more impressive sight.Bird lifeBirdlife is unique at this time of year.The National DayThe celebration of National day takes place on 17 May (20 Round Trip departures from 7-27 May include this). This is an important occasion for Norwegians. Geirangerfjord/TrollfjordFrom April/May Hurtigruten sails into Geirangerfjord and Trollfjord.
