As ‘Succession’ Goes Scandi, Here’s How to Follow in the Roys’ Footsteps in Norway

Jagged mountains, bright blue fjords, roads that snake out towards the sea—it’s no wonder that Norway’s exhilarating landscape drew the producers of Succession to film there. The next episode of series four, in which the Roy siblings make the trip to fight for the deal, won’t just capture Norway’s dramatic scenery, however. It’s an enticing glimpse into a country that, from its rugged west to its buzzy capital, is becoming an increasingly popular destination for a trip spent indulging in long Michelin-starred lunches, exploring fairy-tale surroundings, and relaxing at cool, contemporary spas. Here’s everything you need to know.

The Day Trip

If you’re going to spend an afternoon escaping into nature, make sure it’s some of the most beautiful in the world. Geirangerfjord, a Unesco-listed fjord in western Norway, is surrounded by towering cliffs and the roar of waterfalls, and is renowned for its spectacular views.

The Country Retreat

Juvet

When you imagine a rural Scandi hotel, Juvet Landscape’s futuristic villas and spa probably aren’t what comes to mind. Extremely chic and private, it’s obvious why the minimalist spot, in Alstad, attracted Succession’s producers.
