Enjoy an excursion into Geirangerfjord’s spectacular mountain and waterfall landscape and visit the Norwegian Fjord Center, where the history of this distinctive UNESCO-listed region is illuminated. You’ll travel by coach into a setting of snowy mountains, cascading waterfalls and farms clinging precariously to steep hillsides. Pass through the wild Flydal valley, climbing a series of hairpin bends to Lake Djupvatn some 3,400 feet above sea level. Travel higher still on a mountain road pioneered in 1939, with the summit of Mount Dalsnibba as your breathtaking destination. Gazing down on a picture-book panorama far below, you may even see your ship – appearing like a miniature model afloat on Geirangerfjord’s waters. Stop to wonder at still more amazing scenery at Flydal Gorge and traverse a historic road that first threaded its way over 9 stone bridges back in the 1880s. At the sleek, glass-walled Norwegian Fjord Center, wander among fascinating exhibits themed around the nature, culture and history of this uniquely beautiful and challenging environment – and learn the stories of the people who have figured out how to live and farm here.
