Norway

Norway Synopsis

Norway's harbour-front kitchens, ridge-top views and crimson fishing villages - this travel guide condenses them into the days that actually fit your trip.

Marco Polo is the proud map publishing partner for Race Across the World.

Whether it's your first visit or you're back for more, this guide brings Norway's quieter side within easy reach. Harbour kitchens serve skrei cod and fiskesuppe, ridge trails climb to Preikestolen for views worth the climb, and the UNESCO-listed Naeroyfjord cuts between sheer mountain walls.

Lightweight and pocket-sized, it's built for long summer evenings under the Midnight Sun, relaxing mornings facing Jotunheimen's jagged peaks, and slow drives through postcard scenery, with a pull-out map for easy navigation.
