About the trip

Fred. Olsen’s Bolette undertakes a brief but varied run from Newcastle, threading through four distinct fjords in five nights. After sailing west from the city, the ship cruises into Lysefjord, known for its steep cliffs and the famous Pulpit Rock standing high above the water.

The itinerary includes stops at Eidfjord and Olden. Eidfjord sits near the end of Hardangerfjord, where the journey detours past the Fureberg waterfall, a fine cascade visible from deck. Olden on the Nordfjord coast serves as a gateway to glacier excursions such as Briksdal or the Loen Skylift, offering a chance to stretch legs inland.

Between ports, the ship also sails Maurangerfjord, passing the Fureberg waterfall once more, and takes in Nordfjord. Bolette’s modest size suits fjord navigation and quieter evenings on board. The route touches a selection of landscapes that contrast Norway’s steep and watery west coast with charming small towns.
