Saga Rose in Skjolden 15.06.07

Saga Rose dropped anchor in Skjolden at 7 am Friday 15, and was too a part of the grand opening of the new Norwegian cruise destination Skjolden - Sognefjord. The sun was shining, and the locals greeted our new guests with flags, music and more.

Many guests found their way to the local market where children where playing and dancing etc. In addition, our guests enjoyed several different guided excursions, such as visits to the Urnes Stave Church, the Jotunheimen National Park, the Jostedalsbreen National Park, Breheimsenteret, Gaupne Old Church, helicopter flights etc.

Welcome back to Skjolden in August, Saga Rose!

In the heart of Norway

The Sognefjord stretches all the way in to the heart of Norway, but the distance to Bergen is just 153 nautical miles (equivalent to one overnight voyage).
