But for those who've been, this majestic land of fjords and mountains is utterly unforgettable. The jaw-dropping landscapes crisscrossed by lazy streams and raging rapids lure adventure-seekers in with promises of outdoor fun, and the relaxed cities reward those who come with sophisticated nightlife and warm hospitality. Visit once and remember forever.

Wanna get high?
A precarious new “floating” staircase dangling above a Norwegian fjord is the newest — and perhaps scariest — way to appreciate the country’s unparalleled natural beauty, if you dare.
A whopping 2,591 feet up, the new “Stigull” ladder, a 131-foot-long climb in midair, is the latest draw for adrenaline junkies to the little town of Loen, located in Norway’s northwest.
![scandinavian adventure tours Climbers ascending the new 40-meter ladder segment, STIGULL, on the Via Ferrata Loen climbing route in Norway's northwest](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/loen-active-pleased-announce-new-83879501.jpg?w=1024)
“It might make most people’s legs tremble a bit,” Per Helge Bø, operations manager of Løen Active, told CNN Travel.
From afar, “it looks like people are floating in the air,” Helge Bø said.
Loen is located in the Nordfjord region, prized for its dramatic landscapes. The 120-step ladder is the latest leg of the area’s expanding via ferrata climbing route.
Via ferrata is Italian for “iron path” — the term is used to describe climbing routes that use cables, ladders and other guideways to assist mountain climbers.
The new ladder — mounted at a 45-degree-angle — is part of that course. To even reach it, you’ve got to get part of the way up Loen’s Mount Hoven, an adventure in itself.
![scandinavian adventure tours A group of people walking on a high rope course, Via Ferrata Loen, above a scenic fjord landscape in Norway](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/via-ferrata-loen-spectacular-breathtaking-83878160.jpg?w=1024)
Still, if you can hack the heights, Helge Bø said that the views are more than worth the trouble.
“If you dare to look around, you can take in the spectacular fjord landscape with the glittering fjord and the majestic peaks, with the massive cliff face and narrow gorge right beside you,” he said.
And while you don’t score as many adventure points, you don’t have to subject yourself to the iron path to summit the mountain, which is served by one of the world’s steepest cable car — there’s even a restaurant at the summit.
You’ll definitely save a buck — most hikers on the Via Ferrata Loen pay a whopping $160 for the privilege, which includes the services of a guide. The experienced can go it alone, but will still pay an equipment fee of about $46.
If you’re game, don’t worry if you’ve never done anything like this — the route’s bark is apparently worse than its bite.
“All climbing in Via Ferrata Loen, including the Stigull, takes place while you are securely attached to a wire,” Helge Bø explained.
“Climbing the ladder itself is not difficult, but the exposure and the sense of accomplishment you feel when climbing there are immense,” he said.

Rusmania • Deep into Russia
Out of the Centre
Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.
![Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery and Museum Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery and Museum](https://rusmania.com/sites/default/files/styles/sight_cover/public/monastery-1-6.jpg?itok=jTe81t5t)
Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.
Belfry and Neighbouring Churches
![scandinavian adventure tours](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-3-1.jpg)
Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.
![scandinavian adventure tours](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-2-3.jpg)
To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.
Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral
![scandinavian adventure tours](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-13.jpg)
The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.
![scandinavian adventure tours](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-7-3.jpg)
Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.
Tsaritsa's Chambers
![scandinavian adventure tours](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-12-1.jpg)
The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.
![scandinavian adventure tours](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-32.jpg)
At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.
Palace of Tsar Alexis
![scandinavian adventure tours](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-14-2.jpg)
The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
