The Marvel that is Mjelle

Published on Oct, 2024

Ivar is a guide who is that rare mix of giving you space and getting you the info you need. He was gracious enough not to cancel the tour even though I was the only one who had signed up for that particular day. Besides Mjelle, he also took me to two other beautiful lakes, and even showed me a couple of his own favorite spots.

Amazing experience! Unforgettable guide!

Amazing experience. We had un unforgettable experience. He was a fabulous with a lot of knowledge and was always checking all the terrain before us. Had some wonderful conversations about Norway and the world. Truly amazing. He went out of the way to help us during our stay in Bodo. Cannot recommend it enough!!!!

Great tour experience

Published on Oct, 2023

It was a great tour experience. We were lucky to have good weather that day and our guide was very friendly, thoughtful and professional. We managed to see some sights and viewpoints in Bodo before heading to Mjelle Beach where we were able to do the walk at our own pace and enjoy the stunning landscape that surrounded us.

Outstanding experience!!

Published on Aug, 2022

My wife and I just returned from our trip to Norway with several amazing memories. So many wonderful experiences, with the trip to Mjelle Beach as arguably the best of them all!! The scenery of the area was breathtaking and brought out the kids in us as we eagerly explored everything that there was to offer...the red garnet sand, rock formations, tide pools, streams, waterfalls, etc. Not only was it visually outstanding, but our incredible guide Ivar helped to make the experience even more special. On the ride to the beach, he was incredibly knowledgeable and informative of what we were seeing along the way as well as what to expect, and was such a lively conversationalist that helped us get into the spirit of the day. Upon arrival and during the hike to the beach, he was wonderfully mindful of making sure we were careful about any rocks that could be slippery while embracing our curiosity of all that we were taking in. At the beach, Ivar happily took any and all questions we had as well as allowing us to explore to our hearts desire. For all of the amazing things Norway has to offer (and there were A LOT of amazing things!!!), this trip to Mjelle Beach was absolutely stunning and I cannot recommend this trip enough for anyone going to Norway!!!

Views of peaks and pink beach

Published on Jul, 2022

We sought out the amethyst sand of the beach but found free-range sheep, majestic peaks rising across the bay and crystal clear water. It is an easy hike from the well-indicated parking lot. There were a few scattered tent campers on the site.
