Campervan Norway

April feels like the right time to talk about Hardangervidda National Park. 🤍

As part of our monthly journey through Norway’s geography, the next stop had to be . Located in the south-central part of the country, it’s one of those places that makes perfect sense on a campervan trip from Bergen or Oslo. You get the best of both worlds, city culture, food, and museums on one side, and wide-open Nordic nature on the other.

And yes, there’s a reason we picked it for April. From this point on, Norway’s largest national park really starts to shine. Winter still leaves behind great conditions for cross-country skiing, while longer days and shifting temperatures also make it a beautiful time to start exploring its vast landscapes on foot, whether you’re an experienced hiker or just looking for scenic walks.

The star of the image is Vøringsfossen, one of Norway’s most famous waterfalls. It drops 182 meters from the Hardangervidda plateau into the Måbødalen valley, and seeing it in person is every bit as impressive as it sounds.

Getting there is part of the experience. The easiest way is to follow Route 7, one of Norway’s most scenic drives, which crosses the Hardangervidda area between Eidfjord and Haugastøl, near Geilo. If you’re coming from Bergen, Route 7 takes you inland toward Eidfjord and up into dramatic mountain scenery. If you’re starting in Oslo, the same road takes you west across the plateau toward the fjord side. Either way, it’s the kind of drive that makes you want to stop often and take it all in.

To reach Vøringsfossen, keep following Route 7 toward Måbødalen. The viewpoints are located near Fossli Hotel, about 1 kilometer from the road, and there’s also a parking area nearby. From there, it’s easy to access the viewing platforms and admire the falls as they crash into the valley below.

So if your Norway road trip needs a stop that combines dramatic scenery, an easy detour, and one of the country’s most iconic natural sights, Hardangervidda and Vøringsfossen make a very strong case for April. 🚐✨

Lofoten is one of those places that instantly makes you want to slow down and stay longer.

Dramatic peaks, tiny fishing villages, white sand beaches, and roads that make the drive feel just as good as the stops. It’s easily one of the 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐲.

To really enjoy it, 5 days is a solid plan. That gives you enough time to explore without rushing from one place to the next, and enough flexibility to actually take in the landscapes instead of just ticking boxes.

🚐 A campervan makes the whole trip even better. You get 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦, 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞 around the islands at your own pace. And with the E10 connecting so much of Lofoten, getting around is part of the experience too.

March can be a beautiful time to go, but it still comes with proper winter energy. Expect colder temperatures, possible snow, changing road conditions, and fewer daylight hours than later in spring. On the other hand, the scenery looks incredible, the atmosphere feels wilder, and the islands are often quieter.

Save this post if Lofoten’s on your list, and start planning those 5 days the right way. 🇳🇴✨

Earlier this year, we shared one can’t miss corner of Norway for every month of the year… and guess what? February was the month our Campervan Norway team picked for the Lyngen Alps. And between you and us, it was a perfect match. 🏔️❄️

This peninsula is even more dramatic than it looks in photos, especially in winter. The Lyngen Alps stretch roughly 90 km long and 20 km wide, sitting east of Tromsø and rising straight out of the Norwegian fjords.

And because they sit right by the Arctic Circle and reach up to around 1,800 meters, March and April are a favorite window for adventures like ski touring. But can you visit in February too? Absolutely, as long as the weather plays nice.

Here are a couple of easy ways to get there:

1️⃣ Rent a camper in Tromsø (Link in bio!) and drive about 1 to 1.5 hours. Winter tires are a must.
2️⃣ Take the ferry from Breivikeidet (about 40 minutes from Tromsø) and bring your camper with you. 😉⛴️

Local tip from our team: pack enough supplies, especially food, because you’ll find fewer shops here than in Tromsø. 🥫🍫

Ready for the adventure? 🚐🇳🇴

We promised there was more, and here it is. Part two of our month by month guide to where to go in Norway.

Some of these months feel quieter, moodier, and full of small surprises. The kind of places that make you slow down and really notice where you are. ❄️🌫️🍂

If you already know when you’re traveling this year, visit the link in our bio to book the campervan that fits your dream trip.

You really can explore Norway year round.

This past year reminded us that every month has its own mood, its own rhythm, and its own kind of magic. ❄️🌲🌊☀️🍂✨

So here it is. A month by month look at some of the places that made us fall for Norway again and again, all from the road.

From northern lights and snow covered passes, to long summer days by the fjords, slow coastal drives, and crisp fall landscapes with space to breathe.

This is part one. Just half of the story.
Part two is coming next.

Save this for when you start planning your Norway trip and tell us which month you would choose. 🚐
