Join us on this 4-hour excursion to the amazing Briksdal Glacier. After driving through the small village of Olden, we continue on our way to Briksdal. We drive through the Olden Valley, passing the beautiful Olden Lake. When our bus reaches the Briksdal Inn, you can start the hike towards Briksdal Glacier, which is one of many arms of the famous Jostedal Glacier.
The hike up to Briksdal Glacier takes you through a beautiful scenery surrounded by waterfalls and mountains. Finally, you will reach the viewpoint at the lake of the glacier. The first part of the hike is the hardest, and it gets gradually easier. The walk to the glacier normally takes around 45-60 minutes.

There is a lot of walking. Need to pace yourself. Was a very nice and enjoyable excursion for us. If you have trekking poles, take them.

It is a steep walk and stairs up to the lake and viewpoint of the glacier. So worth it to be up close

Nice hike near the river and beautiful pastas of mountains and waterfalls. Glacier was nice to see and great pics throughout the hike. The hike can be steep at times and is rather strenuous.

Nice hike beautiful day yes we had to re-layer a few times because it was beautiful out absolutely beautiful. It’s a pretty long hike and use some muscles. You have news and ears, but it felt really good and the air was clean and the water was fresh.

The bus tour up to Briksdal Glacier from Olden was excellent. Denim, our guide, was knowledgeable and avoided the cliche guide jokes, which was much appreciated. Once at Briksdalsbreen, we took the troll cars up to the glacier (still a 700-meter walk from where the troll cars drop you off), which avoided a longer hike and gave us more time up by the glacier base. The views are magnificent. Then, the bus dropped us off right back by the ship.

The joining instructions for the bus were confusing. The app showed us in the correct place but it was actually a good 10 to 15 minutes walk away. Our bus also had a sign in the window for Gett your guide just to add to the confusion. I think our guide had that removed but it wasn’t a great start. The experience is basically a coach drive to the glacier and back. Our guide Amy provided us with some helpful information en route. The bus parks about an hours walk from the glacier. There is a cafe , shop and toilets. If you cannot do the walk there are trolley carts but it is advised to book these in advance. The walk to the glacier is quite steep in places but it’s well worth it. There are lots of viewing points and photo opportunities on the way. Great scenery. It’s sad to see how far the glacier has retreated in recent years. The walk back was quicker. Ours was a relatively early trip and would advise that as gets busier as the day goes on. Overall a good trip apart from initial confusion. Glad we did

This is rugged country. There is a lovely shop at the beginning of your hike with bathrooms. The hike can get quite steep, only the last part is fairly flat. You do walk independently at your own pace.

This trip was cancelled twice by two different tour operators that I booked through Viator. The second booking was cancelled the evening before!!! They said there was not enough take up. I now know why. They were charging over £300 for 3 people when we got the same deal for £120 by booking with olden experiences directly. Luckily my husband found them online after I was so upset about the possibility of missing out again. No wonder no one was booking. What a rip off. Glad I got a refund and saved money. The glacier hike was amazing and I had money in my pocket to get a coffee !! I would recommend the experience but not through Viator.
