Introduction

Norway is best known for its outstanding natural beauty, particularly the fjords along its west coast. Once a haven for marauding Vikings, these deep inlets are now the country’s most popular tourist attraction. This is a country shaped by the ice age, with towering mountains, thunderous waterfalls and dense forests.

Norway is located on the west of the Scandinavian Peninsula in northern Europe. Although a third of the country sits in the Arctic Circle, a length of 1,089 miles means that Norway is a year round destination. The summer months are perfect for hiking and mountain biking, while the in winter the skiing and winter sports are unparalleled.

The country is frequently ranked as one of the best places in the world to live, and one of the main reasons is the excellent infrastructure and the quality of local services. The capital city of Oslo offers visitors a stunning contrast of picturesque history and spectacular modern architecture.
