Tips for travelling solo to Norway

Where to stay 

If you are social traveller, it would be better to crash at local hostels, B&Bs, smaller hotels or shared living spaces, such as Airbnb flatshares. Norway also offers a wide variety of accommodation options. While the country is known for being expensive, you can make your solo travel cheaper by bringing a tent with you. In Norway, you can camp anywhere for free, as long as you get the property owner’s permission. If you don’t have a tent, you can easily find cabins for hire.

When to go

If you wish to experience snow sports, visit the country during winter. Otherwise, summer is probably the best to season to visit the country, especially if you are on your own. While Norway can be very cosy in winter, with the snow outside and darkness falling early in the day, it is also a time where most Norwegians focus on family, good friends and cosying up inside. This might help you in connecting with the local people.
