Ulriken (643 metres above sea level) is the highest of the seven mountains (in Norwegian de syv fjell) that surround Bergen, Norway.

Ulriken has an aerial tramway that can bring people to the top. At the top there is a TV tower, a restaurant, and free telescopes. The cable car was closed as of January 2006, due to the operating company failing to meet government requirements for documentation but reopened later spring 2006.
