The Spring Season Month by Month
March
Coastal range: −6°–5°C
Crisp mornings and blue light give way to long twilights. Waterfalls stir, villages feel livelier, and aurora remains possible late in the season.
April
Coastal range: −1°–7°C
The sun climbs higher while winter still glints in the north. Down south, Geirangerfjord wakes—waterfalls, fresh greens on the slopes, and long afternoons of clear light.
May
Coastal range: 4°–11°C
Blossom lights up orchards and villages, and 17 May brings flags, music, and bunads. Days grow long across the country and in the far north the sun barely sets.
