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 Food & Drink in Bergen for Solo Travelers

Fish Market Bergen
Food & Drink
Norway's most famous fish market — a covered market at the waterfront selling fresh Norwegian salmon, king crab, shrimp, and whale from market stalls. More expensive than a supermarket but far more atmospheric; the seafood soup is outstanding, the salmon sashimi is exceptional, and the lobster rolls are pure joy.

Lysverket
Food & Drink
Bergen's most celebrated restaurant — Christopher Haatuft's Nordic cuisine in the KODE art museum combines extraordinary Norwegian seafood and game with a natural wine list and a dining room overlooking Bergen's central lake. One of the most interesting restaurant experiences in Scandinavia.
