Ulriken, Mountain summit in Bergen, Norway

The Ulriken peak reaches 643 meters above sea level and stands as the highest among the seven mountains surrounding the Bergen peninsula.

The mountain received its name from the Old Norse word 'Alrekr', which became integrated into local geography during the Viking settlement period.

The summit houses the Skyskraperen Restaurant, which incorporates Norwegian ingredients into its menu while offering views across the Bergen landscape.

Visitors can reach the summit via the Ulriken Cable Car, featuring Norway's largest gondolas, or by hiking the Oppstemten trail with its 1300 steps.

The Food Forest initiative at Låndås, located on the mountain's slope, implements sustainable gardening practices based on natural ecosystem principles.
