Norway refers to those countries that have no certain season that is most suitable for recreation. You can relax there all year round, it all depends only on your personal preferences and expectations. Below I cite brief characteristics of the time of the year in Norway, as well as possible pastime options in this country.
Summer
Unlike Europe, summer in Norway, as a rule, not at all roast. In summer, the air, of course, warms up, but the nights are rather cold throughout the country - the average night air temperature in the country ranges from +5 to +10 degrees, so all lovers of evening or night walks can be recommended to take warm clothes with them.
Summer is the most popular time for traditional tour tours in Norway - Especially at this time of the year, review bus tours around the country are popular. The popular tourist route called "Road of Trolls", which is located on a steep slope, very visiting tourists in the summer, because it is during this season that you can admire the beauties of the Norwegian nature, its waterfalls, as well as ride according to the famous railway.
In addition, it is summer in Norway - a popular season for yachting. Lovers of yacht sports are usually preferred to travel through the Western and South Coast of the country. In general, the sailing season is open from April to October, but a high season, that is, the most favorable months for classes of these sports are July and August. Of course, it is during these months the price for renting a yacht, but it is justified - in July and August you are waiting for the most suitable weather to admire Norway from the water.
Popular in Norway and fishing. If we are not talking about the lovers of the treated Kleva (that is, winter fishing), then the best months for fishing are again summer. At this time, the most fish on the northern coast, as well as in lakes and rivers. However, pay attention to the fact that for fishing in lakes and rivers (that is fresh water) a license is required, while marine fishing can be engaged at any time of the year.
Famous Norwegian fjords are usually visited by tourists in the summer, because during the summer period, with good weather, landscapes are particularly magnificent, and relatively high air temperature allows for a long time to stay in the fresh air and make memorable pictures. In general, the fjord cruises are available all year round, because the water in that area never freezes, but the traditional time for their visiting is summer.
In addition to the foregoing, there are beaches in Norway, on which only "walruses" are bathed, that is, those who prefer cold water - the temperature there is rarely heated more than 20-23 degrees, but the locals are happy to bathe in the sea and in lakes. Among the leisure travelers is not so much, but nevertheless they are.

However, mostly this season is not very popular among tourists - winter entertainment is not available, but at the same time on the territory of the country is still cold enough - therefore spring is considered not the best period for excursion tours - at this time in Norway, as a rule, only lovers of independent are coming to Norway trips.
