HIGHLIGHTS:  Most tourists that visit Norway make their way to Bergen at some point during their trip. The great thing about this hike is that it is easily accessible by train from Bergen. The Bergen Hiking Club provides outstanding accommodations in their hut system, and the hike to Hogabu is spectacular. There are at least two major waterfalls, over eight frozen lakes, and lots of hiking above tree line (especially if you walk from Vaksdal to Li).
