About this tour
Private Briksdal Glacier Discovery replaces coach schedules with a flexible glacier day built around your group. You travel in a private vehicle from Hellesylt through Hornindal Lake country to Briksdalsbreen with time to adjust photo stops and walking pace.
The tour includes the Briksdal Glacier hike and a stop at Briksdalsbre Mountain Lodge, where mountain hospitality breaks up the active sections of the day. Glacier lake viewpoints and waterfall scenery frame the return journey.
This premium option suits cruise passengers with six or more hours ashore who want glacier hiking without sharing a large coach group, ideal for photographers, families, and couples who value private pacing.

Cruise passenger timing advice

Keep 30 to 45 minutes before all aboard to reach the pier or tender point.
Mountain roads and gondola operations can be weather-dependent, pack layers.
