Join us on this Two Lakes & a Glacier 1hr 45mins audioguided excursion.This scenic drive will take you through one of the most magical landscapes in western Norway. You’ll travel along the shores of glacial lakes with turquoise water and mirror-like reflections, surrounded by waterfalls, traditional farms, and green meadows.

You will visit the main lakes of the area and will make two strategic stops: one to breath in Loen Lake's majestic scenery; and another by the Olden Lake where you will have views to the Mjelkevollen Glacier, one of many arms of the famous Jostedal Glacier.

Olden lies at the inner end of Nordfjord and it is a typical and middle sized west Norwegian fjord village. It has been a popular tourist destination since 1800 century when the first visitors - mainly British lords and ladies came to Olden to visit the glaciers. About 1,100 people live here, surrounded by dramatic mountains, green valleys, and the calm blue waters of the fjord.
