Blue Marble offers a seven-day, six-night bike tour along the deep fjords of Norway's North Sea coast. Travelers meet in the village of Finse. Mountain bikes take them to Flam following a rail trail, in view of glaciers, lakes, mountain slopes, and waterfalls. The following day begins at Myrdal, where the group takes a train and bikes downhill to Voss, near sea level. The trip continues along the Sognefjord, the longest fjord in Norway, via the Flam valley. The group camps in the mountains, then hikes in the mountains, finding peat bogs, hidden waterfalls, rushing streams, and deep forests. Concluding with ferry rides through the Sognefjord and Naeroyfjord, the tour ends at the town of Voss.

After a night in Rosendal, bikers travel up the fjord to Sundal and through the Folgefonna Tunnel to the Sorfjord and the Folgafonn Glacier.
