Hi,
I was wondering if i could please have some advise from travelers who have experienced traveling in Norway. I plan to spend about 1 week in Norway, sometime between april and july, as follows:
- Oslo
- Nærøyfjord & Aurlandsfjord & Stegastein View Point
- Odda - Trolltunga
- Lysefjorden - kjeragbolten (the kjerag bolt)
- Forsand - preikestolen (pulpit rock)
questions:
- what is the minium amount of time i will need for each destination? (please include in detail: traveling times and hiking time to reach destinations)
- what factors will be different traveling in april or may or june or july?
- what is the fastest way to travel to each destination? i dont have a car and i think plane will be too expensive.
- i also wish to go glacier walking (only a 2 hour adventure). hopefully somewhere close along my route. any suggestions?
many thanks 
Henry

May is full spring blossom which is spectacular in Norway. June and July will normally be warmer (about 70F) and the days are long and bright, only some 4-5 hours dark at night as south as Oslo.
The 17th of May is the National Day. Celebrated heavily all over the country. http://www.visitnorway.com/en/About-Norway/History/Norways-national-day/
For the best advice on traveling in Norway, I suggest you go to Tripadvisor's Norway forum. There are a number of experts there that can answer your questions. I found them extremely helpful when I was working on my itinerary for Norway.
