TOP 10 MUST-SEE PLACES IN NORWAY - A Photographer's Guide
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 июл 2024
- This is a travel guide to Norway showing the top 10 places you must see if you’re visiting. These tips are from the perspective of a photographer, but the places are perfectly fine to visit if you’re a regular traveller as well.
I’ve been fortunate enough to travel around in Norway almost contently for the past few years as a time-lapse photographer. That has given me extensive knowledge of what Norway has to offer, also outside the most touristic places. This list includes some true hidden gems you might not have heard of before.
Norway is a fantastic country, and this list could’ve been much, much longer. But these are my favorites, and I’m sure you’ll love them too.
The full list:
1. Senja
1. Varangerhalvøya
1. Femundsmarka
4. Loenvatnet
5. Valdres
6. Hardanger
7. Helgeland
8. Lofoten
9. Nærøyfjorden
10. Jettegrytene i Nissedal

Guys, check out my brand new time-lapse "SOUTH AMERICA" ruclips.net/video/pp95UwZGD8Y/видео.html
I have a cabin in Valdres that is very well hidden. There are only 4 other cabins within at least a kilometer. BTW, you are Norwegian, right?
Where was Geirangerfjorden?
Don't talk so much about Senja
Bro plz reply just wanna ask you one thing from which site or which company have organized all these places visit... bcz whenver i see i dont get to see most of these places in there package... plz bro plz let me know... who organized this trip for you..?
Absolutely Stunning. I would like to know some tips and tricks to take Time lapse videos. You have shown the beauty of planet in your own way. Thank you for sharing.
That feeling when you have been living in this country for almost 25 years and haven't seen a single one of these places.
The thing is, there are so many beautiful spots in Norway

600 billion hours of video watched every month on youtube. This must be the best 7 minutes! Made me plan our 5th trip. Thank you Sir!
Plan the trip well and you will have a great trip, dont wanna come off as some captain obvious^^ but planning i feel is more important when visiting norway then most places, due to cost etc., you can save so much money by planning well! Have a great trip:-)
amazing! really good video and awesome compilation of timelapses. really inspiring. thank you
The most beautiful country😍😍 i love Norway🇳🇴 grettings from Czechia🇨🇿🇳🇴
C'est pour moi, le plus joli pays que j'ai visité :la mer, les montagnes , les fjords, les rivières, les glaciers, la nature, les vastes étendues de nature vierge, les églises en bois debout, le soleil de minuit....et les moustiques...
M&M are from Norway
My god, your photography is simply breathtaking! I've been to Norway three times and this makes me want to return soon. Thank you.

We have spent two summers traveling to Norway from Spain in furgocamper to photograph and record wildlife (arctic fox, musk ox, puffins, etc ...), and every year we are more in love with this country. Norway is fantastic. Congratulations on the video.
Norway is so pretty

I don't know if you speak norwegian, but everyone is arguing in norwegian here.
Swapping between gasps, goosebumps and wows watching this. Beautiful!
I can't thank you enough Morten, this is by far one the best of Norway videos I've watched, and it's definitely my N°1 in the bucketlist
My soul belongs here... such a great place for introverting. ♥️
stunning, thank you so much :)

As s Swede that has traveled quite a lot, I must admit that our neighbour country is amazingly beautiful. Still I miss my favourite place on the list, Geiranger fjord. It is also a ”must see”.
Locals don't like the tourist traps. Nature you have to stand in line for doesn't count. It's for solitude and peace, not annoying and being annoyed by other people. I'm from Norway, and I'd rather just go outside and climb a tree than go to Geiranger. Even Lofoten isn't worth visiting anymore. There are places right next to all this stuff just as beautiful and with no tourists. Norwegians go there.
It's great with guides that can show people all over the world how and where to go and visit these sensitive sites of nature of which less and less remain due to human destruction and carelessness. great job!
I have been in Norway for 14 days with my family and it was the most beautiful experience I've ever made :) the landscape is just awesome :)
awesome!! thanks to you vídeos norway is my favorite countri Saludos desde Argentina
As i live in norway and has lived here my entire life, i know these places are beautiful. I have traveled through entire norway and it is beautiful
Thank you so sharing this beautiful Top 10 AMAZING CHOICES !!

could you make a video about my country?
i already subscribed and share your video . thanks
Have you been to glomdalen in mo i rana? I promise you that glomdalen is fantastic
Morten Rustad am from norway and no way
We are so happy that you talk so nice about our land Norway 🇳🇴
Both name of the video dude and his accent tell his Norwegian.
His name is Morten Rustad😊 He’s Norwegian
What a great adventure you had. Your touches of your work are so amazing. My most favorite time lapse photographer.
Stunning and incredible captured. Thanks for the lovely views.
"How about sitting on this edge..." I almost threw up! I hate heights! :D
I'm relatively new to photography and have just started venturing out of my home country (Wales). I was in Scotland a couple of weeks ago, but Norway is absolutely 100% at the top of my list of places I want to go. Along with Iceland.
Great footages! Norway is really magnificent.
Agreed! Awesome videos and make us want to travel more! Norway looks incredible :)
This video is simply too good i think the rest of us can forget bringing a camera to Norway. Absolutely spectacular!
I've been to Helgeland pretty often and I can totally relate. It's incredible..I just love it
Norway, always in my heart❤❤
What a photography man... Awesome this is the my besssst video i never ever watched... Superb
Adore taking photos in such places!
Fantastic. I look forward to visiting these beautiful places. Thank you.
Amazing video, planning my trip to Norway 🇳🇴 this year
Here´s one fan from Portugal and I just have one thing to say...i hope you continue sharing your videos with us.
Im an amateur in photo/timelapsing but i love your videos and the simple comunication that you use to explain everything.
I hope see you doing timelapse videos with more "cheap" material, and ofcourse, see more "professional timelapse movie".
Never stop!
Brilliant! Thank you ... I was there in 2014 and it took my breath away .. Norway is so beautiful.
The worst thing is when a beautiful area is turned into a tourist area with shitty stores, I agree with you
...we are ALL the tourists - not the other one ....., please keep that in mind.
I agree, Using the word tourist in a bad light, kind of disappointed. To each his own, but traveling to places is an experience, unique to each individual. There’s no right or wrong way to travel. Tourists are travelers, travelers are tourists. I hate it when people act elitist, “I’m better, I’m the ultimate traveler coz I stay in the off the beaten path away from other people” stfu, guess what you’re a tourist
Thank you!
we are tourists to this earth.
I hate when Therese is lots of people on the most beutiful nature. And Therese will never be calm. Always noice
Norway you are in my bucket list.
This is amazing! The quality and artistry were excellent and I found it very moving.
Wonderful to see these beautiful places that are not crowded!
im not nearly old enough to travel places this far, and the fact that my parents are way too busy to go there is just a massive bummer t me. just the thought about all of the beauty im missing just makes me wanna cry.
and i even live in Norway
Am coming to discoover it this summer..end of july
Great Morten..Norway few of best places in world..
Wow. You make terrific choices, good sir, both technical AND aesthetic. I been coming back to Norway the past 5 years and you've just added some new destinations to my future travels. Thanks!
Gorgeous video! Amazing! Crystal clear water at the lake! Stars sparkling like diamondusts in the sky at night! SO MAGICAL!!! THANKS for the video & the great job you did !
WOW...what an awesome and informative video!!! I've been to Norway 3 times now...cycling, hiking and walking and it truly is my favourite country. June 2017 I am looking to head to the North of the country for the first time...I plan to start in Helsinki, taking a train north before cycling across Sweden and to Narvik. From there I WAS going to get a hire car and head to Lofoten...after watching this though, I'll head to Senja. Great video dude!!!
If you have time, you can see both Senja and Lofoten. Travel distance between those two are not so bad. Senja is large with so many places who would give you real "Once in a lifetime" experience. So be shure you dont miss the places.
You can travel by ferry from Gryllefjord (Senja) to Andenes (Vesterålen, and drive through Vesterålen to Lofoten.
All three regions is worth the trip. You should spend at least two to three days in each region to see as much as you can.
Thanks dude. Any specific spots you recommend so I can highlight them on my map for "must visit" :D
If you choose to go by ferry to Andenes, I recommend to drive on the west side of the island of Andøy when you drive to Sortland. The roads a far better on the east side, but nature is just breathtaking on the west side of the island. When you get close to Sortland, there is a fjord to the east wich you should consider going to. It is called Godfjord wich is accessed through Hognfjord, and is a very nice place worth a look. When you come to Sortland, you could choose to stay there to the next day, and take a trip to Nyksund in Øksnes and Hovden/Nykvåg in Bø the next day. Both Øksnes and Bø is worth exploring more, but you can see what you have time for. When you travel further to Lofoten, you can choose to go by ferry from Melbu, or to drive through Gullesfjord and Raftsundet. The ferry takes about 30-40 minutes if I remeber correctly, In Lofoten you should visit Henningsvær, Svolvær, Kabelvåg, Lofotr at Borge, just outside Leknes (a viking museum), Haukelandstranden (a very nice beach, but don't expect good bathing temperatures), and Å. If you have time, you should also visit Skrova an island only accessable by boat, outside Svolvær. There is also a place called Nusfjord, but it has developed into this rediculous expensive tourism machine, and is no longer worth a visit in my opinuion. I'm not that well known around Senja, but I have heard Gryllefjord, Senjahopen and Ersfjord are very beautiful places. These are just a few places of interest, and what you should really do is to have enough time to explore the regions. They are all breathtaking in it's own way.
Another thing worth mentioning is the weather in june. It can still be very cold here then. If you have a chance to postpone it, weather is usually much more stable and warm from mid july and out september.
Love your videos
Agreed! Awesome videos and make us want to travel more! Norway looks incredible :)
Wow, some amazingly beautiful time-lapsed photography. You are blessed to live in such a lovely country. Hope to visit soon. Thanks for all you do.
This is beautiful!! Spectacular!!
Wow!!! What a video!! Jeg er så stolt over å være norsk :) Helt fantastisk bra jobba :)
Utrolig kult! Må snart komme meg ut å utforske landet vårt litt! :)
Samme her :)
det må jeg også
Jeg og
Vi er Norge i Røt, Vit og Blåt!🇳🇴
Jeg ut forsker hale Norge hvet år 😁😁👍🏻
Excellent video and great suggestions. Probably the best I have seen on Norway. Many thanks for sharing. Safe travels
Great work! We have been traveling for 6 months in Scandinavia with our Van, thanks for your suggestions! We also racommend the Værøy Island, we left our hearts there!
May 2019 ..
My dream country.. 😍🤘🎶🎸
Utrolig gøy å se litt andre steder en bare de "virkelig" kjente stedene.
Og liker kvaliteten du leverer ;) Hvilke kamera bruker du til timelapsene dine?
Såg ut som han brukte gopro basert på utstyret hans
Waooooo most incredible places to visit in Norway. fabulous
Wow, the landscapes you captured gave me goosebumps. Amazing photography, well done.
Lot of love from india :)
Nice covering (y)
For my money Norway is the most beautiful country in the world . I was privileged to have good friends there and to sail on a Norwegian yacht. And to travel through some of their wonderful country .
it was beautiful, just got back from a cruise in the Fjords

Thanks Morten for this upload. Amazing places I didn't know before!
Amazingly beautiful. Breathtaking scenery. I wish I had watched this video before I went on my Norway trip years ago.
I have fallen in love with this country... I wish i get a chance to settle down over there. 🤗🤗🤗🤩🤩🤩
I went to Norway for a 10 day trip and each day was dedicated to each of these places!! I went to all 10 in 10 days!!
Mikey Stermer its satisfied with that?Not tired one day one place...
Great...
Wow, amazing. Did someone organize this trip for you and if so, which company was it. I would appreciate it if you could provide more details regarding the way you travelled, where you slept etc.
Lucky basstid
quantity over quality lol
Yeah. There are hidden gems everywhere in Norway. Thanks for sharing!
This is the absolute best video I have ever seen on RUclips. The time it must have taken you and the dedication is truly outstanding! I am visiting Lofoten in 3 weeks and cannot wait but I am sure that I will revisit more of Norway in the near future! To be honest, and having visited both locations, it looks like Norway leaves NZ and Iceland for dead.
Awesome! I want to go back now :D
Kunsten av timeslapse er fantastisk, spesielt med slike flotte landskaper rundt seg! Er fullstendig enig med deg om turistoppstyret rundt Lofoten, og syntes det har blitt et sted lagd for turister. Men har du reist til Vesterålen? har vært der hver sommer siden jeg var 1 år, spesielt rundt Bø området! Det er en helt syk ubeskrivelig natur, høye fjell og en deilig frisk sjøluft. Hvis ikke, så burde du!
Wow!!!
Breathtaking!!
Love your timelapse videos! 🤩
meine einzige frage ist
*annika, warum ist das in der playlist für die jungs wg in italien*
Sarah Michelle hahaha dachte ich mir auch😂
Dachte ich mir auch 😅👋
Same😂 Dachte ich mir einfach auch.... Hab nach dem Kommentar gesucht und ich muss schon sagen, schöne Aura hier!
my life goal
Agreed! Total life goals here. Awesome video and make us want to travel more! Norway looks incredible :)
Thanks for sharing..Norway is so beautiful, plenty of spectacular nature 💗
Beautiful - thanks for your skill and passion and for posting this video.
Morten, this is **amazing** what a beautiful country - as a non-driver, I'm presuming most of these places are inaccessible? Looks like I might have to talk someone into taking me :)
Ross Jukes Photography, well, renting a car makes everything much easier. I've been to Jotunheimen and Hardanger, and there are busses passing some really nice hiking trips. I would recommend Besseggen and Knutshøe in Jotunheimen. The tour starts right by the main road.
Even Falkenberg Langås excellent, thank you for the advice and the inspiring video 👍
Tourists annoyed at the fact that there are tourists somewhere always cracks me up xD
The irony is even funnier when you make a video encouraging tourism. lol
1: He is Norwegian.
2: He is a photographer, not a tourist.
Fishslap 33 So because he’s norwegian and a photographer he can’t be a tourist?
@@johnnybrathen7584 that is not what he said..
Aulo 2905 I think he did?🤔
Fishslap 33 A photographer can’t be a tourist?
Great video! The commentary in combination with the stunning videos and pictures was perfectly crafted.
Thank you!
Thank you Thank you ! What a wonderful way to present my beloved Norway!
I will go there🤓
What about Geirangerfjord? It's a very beautiful and famous fjord in Norway.
Yeah for sure. That video must be seen as his personal list. There are thousands of places in Norway that can match that list.
Thank you so much for the efforts you put in!
Hey Morten, I live in Stavanger Norway and I absolutely love your videos because I am able to recognise a lot of the places you've been to but also it gives me ideas of where to go to next! Keep it up :)
00:11 Where is this beautiful place? I have to go there!
Could be one of about a billion forest lakes in the east and south of the country.
Missing Preikestolen / Kjerag / Lysefjorden.
Morten Skogseth they are beautiful but full of tourists
Preikestolen is ruined. Too much tourism
Inspirational and generous as always. Thank you.
Totally agree with Senja. The Segla /Hesten hike is outstanding
Who says Switzerland is paradise of earth 😍
im from Senja! :D
Bare tulr jeg har bod deg det er en fin blas
One of the most amazing place i wish to visit.
Thank you for this list! Finally someone listing non-tourist attractions!
WOW ! Your work is incredible. I cant imagine how I only found it now. The footage is just absolutely stunning. Going to go over all of your vlogs and content now. Thank you !
Hvorfor er ikke Geirangerfjorden med?
Tvert imot. Vært der ca. 5 ganger og har aldri opplevd for mye turister. Og det stort sett i juli
Enig, kryr av turister der. De burde fjerne ALL TURIST DRITT
Lovely work Morten :) Senja is absolutely my favie too.
Norway is definitely one of the most beautiful countries in the planet. Thanks for the video, there are so many places I haven't visit yet even thought I have been there 6 times.
Just impressive. Thanks for this wonderful video Morten Rustad
thanks so much for sharing this. Definitely gives me some ideas for the future!
Excellent video Morten... thanks, coming over in a few months, so I have a few spots to consider
I am pretty sure this is the youtube video I have watched the most times! Love Norway and your top 10!
Also, Loenvatnet is the only place on your list where I have actually been, but I absolutely loved that place! Probably the most beautiful place I have been so far!
Oh nice, thank you! I've planned to travel Norway vor 5 weeks in a campervan this summer after returning from Iceland. Very looking forward to it and will definitely visit some of these places! cheers
Norway has been on my list for long time. Thank you for putting this video together dude ! :)
loved the video so much, i am going to rewind it again, and again, and again.
Agreed! Awesome videos and make us want to travel more! Norway looks incredible :)
I was in Norway last year and I fell in love with this amazingly beautiful country! I will definitely go back and explore as many as possible of your extraordinary top 10!
And by following that list you will hurry straight past thousand other places that can match that list. Good luck
Hi is end of February a good time to visit these places and what mode of transportation you advice ? Thanks
Thank you Morten for this amazing video. We are going this week to Tromsoe and the north and you confirmed the choices we made for the trip.
