From Bergen to Balestrand? The season for boat trips is here
We've opened our doors for the season and with Norled's summer route, it's even easier to take the fjord route to us.
The trip from Bergen to Sogn takes just under four hours and offers a beautiful journey along our mighty fjord.
On board the boat, you can work, relax or enjoy good company.
Why not bring your next corporate gathering to Balestrand? With the speedboat you will experience a different way of traveling.
Course and conference? Experience a new travel route - and arrive in time for lunch
If they leave Bergen on the morning boat at 8 am, they will arrive in time for lunch. Then they can have a good working session after lunch, before enjoying the possibilities here in the evening, with food, drink and stories. The next day, they can work until noon, before the boat leaves for Bergen.
We have meeting rooms and conference halls that can accommodate up to 450 people.

Statue of King Olav V
As you pass Skjerjehamn at the far end of the Sognefjord, you can see the much talked about statue of King Olav V, which was unveiled in 2007. As you cross the Sognefjord, you will look straight towards Lihesten, a characteristic mountain that stands out clearly. On the way in, you will pass Brekke on the south side of the fjord, a small place where it rains more than in Bergen!
As you approach Balestrand, you will see the mountain that has been painted by the most artists in Norway, namely Vindreken. In the foreground is Kviknes Hotel, a family hotel that is part of De Historiske Hotel.
Here you can read stories that will make you gasp. Just ask Sigurd Kvikne!
