Tveit Camping

Alan Rogers Review of Tveit Camping

Located in the district of Vik on the south shore of Sognefjord, 4 km. from the small port of Vangsnes, Tveit Camping is part of a small working farm and it is a charming neat site. Reception and a kiosk open most of the day in high season and there is a phone to summon assistance at any time. Three terraces with wonderful views of the fjord provide 35 pitches with 30 electricity connections (10A) and there are also site owned cabins. On the campsite, you will find a restored Iron Age burial mound dating from 350-550 AD, whilst the statue of ‘Fritjov the Intrepid’ towers over the landscape at Vangsnes.

The fjord is some four kilometres wide at the campsite and over a kilometre deep. Within reach is a sightseeing ferry journey from Gudvangen, and a mountain railway at Flåm. Worth visiting are the Kristianhus Boat and Engine Museum, the traditional Gamalost cheese making in Vik, and in Fjærland, across the fjord, you can find the Norwegian Glacier Museum. It is also possible for families to do easy hikes on the glacier at Nigardsbreen, something more challenging on Jostedalsbreen above Fjaerland.
