Behind downtown Bergen there is a cable car going up to the top of a mountain. Behind the little station house of the cable car there is a footpath winding all the way up to the top of the mountain ending at the overview platform, allowing a panoramic view of the city. On a clear day it is magnificent. The trail is steep at times and can be slippery while wet, but for an experienced street or trail runner it is a great way to see part of the city and get in a good workout. Total time each way, about 1/2 hour.
