2 Bergen s most popular attraction The Fløibanen funicular in Bergen is one of the most famous attractions in Norway and the only funicular of its kind in the country. It runs from the city centre to the top of Mount Fløyen in just six minutes, and the ride is an experience in itself. The ride starts at the lower station, right in the heart of the city, just 150 metres from Bryggen and the Fish Market.

3 We took the Funicular (cable railway) to the top of Mount Floyen. It was a fun and picturesque experience. The ride down was even better with the stunning views we got from the wagon windows of the downwards slope. The setting on top is done up well, we got an overview of the town from the viewing platforms, there were playgrounds for kids, free Wi-Fi, cafes, people were making animal balloons and distributing to kids. We didn t try out the hiking trails but they did look great, the place had an amazing atmosphere to it. Visited February 2016 Ranked #1 of 99 things to do in Bergen Must Visit, Amazing View
