We had intended taking the trailer tent to Norway, but just getting there was ridiculously expensive. The toll on the bridge twixt Sweden and Denmark was more than one month's total spend on our recent trip to France. Campsites are few and far between but you can wild camp anywhere more than 50 metres from a road.
We chickened out and decided to take the 12 voyager cruise. It looks good and hope we will come back refreshed before toddling off to camp in Scotland
There is a ferry from Germany to Norway around 255 euro's.

The ferry goes from Kiel to Oslo.

Personally I would rather drive through Sweden, more to see. You could drive one way, ferry the other way.
The ferry from Newcastle to Bergen was MEGA expensive if you had a caravan, the only saving was in time. We looked at it once and it was about £1200 back in 2005 or so.
The shorter the trip, the higher the daily cost of course. We only do long trips, Norway 2010 was 4 months, so our cost per day is "low".
We are retired now, so time is not an issue.
If you leave out ferries and insurance you are looking at say £25 for a site, £10-£15 for food, and maybe £20 for fuel per day, depending on how far you drive.
Take as much food with you as possible, stock up in Sweden or Denmark, Sweden is the cheaper of the 2.
You idea to wait till you can make a longer trip is good, you will have more time to do Scandinavia justice. Take 3 months and see as much as possible, Denmark, Sweden and Finland are well worth visiting.
