Take Bergen´s cablecar

The Ulriken cablecar is a popular tourist attraction in Bergen, Norway. Located near the seven mountains that surround the city, tourists can take advantage of this mode of transport to get an amazing bird’s eye view of the beautiful fjords and lush countryside. The cablecar takes visitors up to Mt. Ulriken, which stands at 643 meters above sea level – giving them a truly spectacular panoramic experience from one of highest points in the area.

The ride itself is enjoyable and provides riders with plenty of opportunities for sightseeing and taking pictures. It travels parallel to two other Bergen attractions: Floibanen Funicular and Mount Floyen. Unlike many other cablecars around the world, this one has no intermediate stops along its route – making it unique among its peers for its smooth journey up to the peak of Mt Ulriken.

Super easy trip from the city! 🚋 It took me just 19 minutes by tram and then straight onto the cable car up the mountain. The ride itself is already worth it – amazing views all the way up. At the top there’s a restaurant with a stunning panorama, perfect for a drink or a bite. If you’re into hiking, there are also some really nice trails...
