The Vidden trail crosses the high plateau between Mount Fløyen and Mount Ulriken — 15 km of moorland hiking that is one of the finest urban walks in Europe. The route goes across heather and bog, past small lakes, with broad views over Bergen and the fjords. It takes five to six hours at a comfortable pace.
The most logical direction is west to east: take the Fløibanen funicular to the top of Fløyen, follow the waymarked trail across the plateau, and descend via the Ulriken cable car (check the last cable car time before setting out). Both ends are in the city, so no shuttle is needed. Bring waterproofs regardless of the weather — the plateau is exposed and Bergen is Bergen.
