NORWAY ~ Greetings from Fagernes ~

... Great views of a beautiful little city nestled in Norway's picturesque Valdres Valley... the area around Fagernes is varied and predominantly hilly, with some steep slopes in certain areas... this makes it a great destination for outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking, skiing and snowshoeing... there are plenty of trails to explore throughout the year and breathtaking panoramic mountain views and lookouts to visit... it offers visitors also a range of historical and cultural experiences... Nogmaals Heel Erg Bedankt Ben en Loes! \_(♥‿♥)_/

Fagernes is the capital of the Valdres district and the largest city in the valley located in Western Norway.

The name itself speaks of its beauty: ‘Fagernes' is a compound of the two Norwegian words ‘fager' and ‘nes' – meaning fair or beautiful (fager) and headland or spit (nes).
