RIB Adventure to Modalen
Discover one of Norway's most beautiful fjord destinations on a guided RIB adventure to Modalen — starting and ending in Bergen.
The journey begins with a comfortable bus transfer from Bergen to Fjærå Sjøhus on Osterøy, where you meet your guide and prepare for the fjord safari. From here, you head out by RIB into the Osterfjord, passing the Nordhordland floating bridge and continuing through the powerful Mostraumen current.
As the fjord narrows, the landscape becomes more dramatic and untouched — steep mountains rise straight from the water, and the surroundings feel increasingly wild and remote. This is where you truly experience the contrast between accessible fjords and the hidden, lesser-visited parts of Western Norway.
The RIB journey continues deeper towards Modalen, one of Norway's smallest and most secluded municipalities, before returning to Fjærå Sjøhus. Here, you enjoy a relaxing lunch by the fjord in calm maritime surroundings.
After the break, the tour concludes with a return transfer by bus back to Bergen.
