About Bergen for Solo Travelers
The gateway to Norway's fjords — a rainbow of wooden Hanseatic warehouses, seven surrounding mountains, and boats departing daily into the most dramatic fjord scenery in the world.
Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
Bergen is Norway's fjord gateway and one of its most beautiful and solo-friendly cities — the Bryggen wharf (UNESCO), the Fløibanen funicular, and the fish market are all excellent solo stops. The seven mountains surrounding the city are perfect solo hikes (Ulriken cable car for those who want the view without the climb). All the fjord cruise departures group solo travelers together. Expect rain; pack accordingly.

Best Accommodation in Bergen for Solo Travelers
Showing 2 spots in Accommodation
Hotel Oleana
Accommodation
A design hotel of extraordinary warmth — Norwegian nature brought inside through birch wood, sheep wool, and handmade textiles in a boutique hotel near the Bryggen wharf. The breakfast with local smoked salmon and Bergen-baked bread sets the day perfectly; the staff are the most helpful in Norway.
📍Nygårdsgaten 5, 5015 Bergen
Montana Youth Hostel Bergen
Accommodation
The most scenically positioned hostel in Norway — set on the hillside above Bergen with panoramic fjord views, a garden, and easy access to the city via bus. Slightly removed from the center but worth it for the setting; the sunrise view over the Bergen fjords from the terrace is unforgettable.
📍Johan Blytts vei 30, 5096 Bergen
