Bergen, Norway

Late April is a lovely time to visit Bergen, as spring is arriving and days grow noticeably longer. Surrounded by mountains and situated on Norway’s scenic west coast, Bergen is the natural gateway to the western fjords. Participants who want to stay for the weekend, will find plenty of opportunities to explore the region through day trips. Bergen Airport offers connections to many European cities, and the campus can easily be reached by bus in about 15 minutes from the city center.
