Norway Puzzles

Norway is a long, mountainous country on the western edge of Scandinavia, famous for its deep fjords, the midnight sun and the northern lights. Our Norway puzzles travel from the fjords of the west coast to the fishing villages of the Lofoten Islands and the Arctic city of Tromsø, with Oslo, Bergen and Ålesund along the way.

About Norway

The fjords were carved by glaciers during the ice ages and later flooded by the sea, creating narrow arms of water between cliffs up to a thousand metres high. You can piece together the Geirangerfjord with the Seven Sisters waterfall, the Aurlandsfjord seen from Stegastein, the village of Flåm and its famous railway, and the Lysefjord, where Preikestolen rises six hundred metres above the water and the boulder of Kjeragbolten hangs between two cliffs. High above Lake Ringedalsvatnet, the rock ledge of Trolltunga juts out into the air.

On the west coast, the hairpin bends of Trollstigen climb past a waterfall, the Atlantic Ocean Road hops across the sea on eight bridges, and Ålesund was rebuilt in Art Nouveau style after a great fire in 1904. Bryggen in Bergen recalls the merchants of the Hanseatic League, and the medieval stave churches of Borgund and Heddal are crowned with dragon heads. In Oslo you can assemble the City Hall, where the Nobel Peace Prize is presented, the Royal Palace, Akershus Fortress and the sculptures of Vigeland Park.

Further north, the Lofoten Islands bring the red cabins of Reine and Hamnøy, the old fishing village of Nusfjord, the football pitch of Henningsvær, Svolvær and a Viking chieftain's longhouse at Borg, while the island of Senja has the sharp peak of Segla. In winter, when the sun stays below the horizon for weeks, the northern lights dance over Tromsø and Lofoten.
