I am returning to the Shetlands this summer; I now have more time on my hands (the glory of retirement...) and fancy a diversion for a few days to Norway. Unknown territory for me; it's not often that I can say that when it comes to Europe.
The Bergen area seems the obvious destination (although perhaps not Bergen itself), and it is probably not more than 36 hours (180 miles) from Lerwick (Rustler 36).
Apart from the obvious such as crossing the North Sea and avoiding the oil rigs, any advice on best landfall, 'must see' places, cruising guides, charts, on-line resources?.
