Fløyen is a must do while in Bergen. Fløibanen, the funicular brings you up the hillside, from Bergen city centre to the top of the mountain in 6 minutes. At Mount Fløyen you will find beautiful views of Bergen, the nearby islands, fjords and mountains surrounding Bergen. Fløyen is a great destination for hiking, mountain biking and soft adventures. We are surrounded by hillsides, mountains, forests, nice little lakes and numerous trails. We offer daily guided hikes “Hiking Mount Fløyen" and Mountain bike rental from mid June until mid August. We love children, and the children love Fløyen. Let the kids explore our playground, Fløysletten climbing playground, the Troll forest. Try out canoe paddling at lake Skomakerdiket (mid June - mid August), feel the adrenalin rush in FløyenKids ziplinepark and get at kiss from our lovely goats at Fløyen. Fløistuen shop and cafè have souvenirs, perfect gifts and memories from Bergen and Norway. We offer local food as “Fløyenbollen", the cinnamon-bun and our organic soup “Fløyensuppen". Fløien Folkerestaurant is open daily from May until September.

Clean, efficient and stunning views from the top
We were in Bergen for half a day as a cruise ship stop. Someone had told us we would have to be early off the ship and make our way straight to the funicular if we wanted to stand a chance of getting on it. However we had taken a leisurely walk to the nearby area and thought we would take a look at the queue. Well there wasn’t one. We bought a ticket at the booth (150kr return in June 22) and boarded straight away. There is limited seating in each section but more room to stand. The electronic boards suggested trains were every 30 mins which worried us a little in case it got busy however they were pretty much running up and down constantly. The station and the carriage were spotless. The ride up and down is very swift (under 3 minutes). If you can try to get the bench seats in the lowest carriage for the best views. The views from the top are spectacular. We could see our cruise ship in its berth in the distance. There is a lot to see at the top but our time was limited so we just walked to the lake which was enchanting. You could easily spend several hours up here. When we arrived back at the base station it was busier with a small queue for tickets from the booth but there were electronic machines which very few seemed to be using. If you had purchased your tickets in advance you could scan the QR code on your mobile to open the gates.

Beautiful Views of Bergen
This is worth the time to get some great views of Bergen and the surrounding area. It's a nice ride up and down, there's lots of walking/hiking paths at the top, a short zipline for kids, as well as a restaurant and viewing areas. I recommend buying your tickets online so that you don't have to wait in the regular line buying tickets at the entrance...can save you lots of time.
