"Better than Lonely planet"

"You can stop googling right now. This map has everything - from interesting places to recommendations for hiking trails and adventurous activities. You can filter the layers according to your preferences or just explore one area on the map. I love that it is done in Google maps, so you get access to reviews, pictures, and links to official websites."

"The map saved me hours of work"

"I actually like the process of planning my holiday. On the other hand, I hate spending tens of hours in front of a computer screen just to find interesting places that are worth visiting. The information for travel guides is often outdated. That is why I like this idea of an interactive travel map. It contains everything I need and I would love to have it for more countries than just Norway."

"everything your outdoor-loving heart could desire"

"I absolutely love this map! There are many more categories than the “All Trails,” or the “UT.no” apps have, which makes it easier to plan a comprehensive trip without having to click between different apps and/or websites. Sure, you still need google maps, or the old-fashioned atlas, to plan your route to and from certain points, but this map has everything your outdoor-loving heart could desire! Waterfalls, hikes (ranked by difficulty), beaches… you name it! You can find travel guides to any city on this planet, but I have never seen as great a map for those who want to venture out into the wilderness as this one! You can search for specific locations or simply browse between the categories to find destinations you haven’t yet thought of. The sheer amount of points on this map is mind-blowing, and I cannot imagine the work that has gone into this! If you are planning to explore Norway, this is the map for you! "

THE STORY BEHIND THE CREATION OF THE INTERACTIVE MAP

Hello, my name is Radka, and I moved to Norway in 2012 to do an exchange semester at the University of Trondheim. That decision has turned my life upside down. You see, I fell in love with Norway. First with nature, and lately with my Norwegian boyfriend, and it has been ten years since I call Norway my home.

When I created this webpage, I had no plans to write about Norway. I thought it wasn’t exotic enough, and I falsely assumed that the tourists traveling to Norway are only interested in hiking Preikestolen and Trolltunga or visiting the Lofoten islands. At that time, we lived in Trondheim, and I hadn’t even been to Trolltunga since it was quite a long drive from there. So I thought that my mother was the only person interested in my weekend trips to the mountains around Trondheim.

It turned out later that my mom didn’t read this blog. Instead, my articles (primarily written in Czech) found their way to people interested in traveling to Norway. As the community grew (for example, in my FB group Norway – Tips for Travelers), people asked me for my recommendations about hikes and exciting places. So I started offering tailor-made itineraries for trips to Norway and Iceland.

But the idea came to my mind that one day I would like to create a guidebook about traveling to Norway, where I would summarize my tips on well-known and lesser-known tourist attractions. So when we had to end our trip to South America prematurely in 2020 because of the pandemic and return to Norway, where we had neither housing nor work, I decided that it was time to implement the idea.

We spent spring, summer, and autumn 2020 traveling in southern and western Norway, and even though we have been touring Norway many times, we still came across new and new exciting places that formed the basis of this map.

I made the map primarily for my boyfriend and me to map the possibilities of trips around my boyfriend’s cottage, where we settled after returning to Norway from the quarantine in Argentina. But the family and friends to whom we showed the map were very excited to have it too, so we decided that it would be a shame to keep it to ourselves.

I hope you will like the map and that it will be a great help for you for planning trips in Norway, whether you come from abroad for a vacation or you live in Norway, and you are planning a weekend getaway.
