The UNESCO Nærøyfjord was in 2004 titled by the National Geographic as “the worlds best unspoiled destination”. The Jotunheimen National park has antastic hiking areas and Vettifossen - the most beautiful waterfall in Norway. There are marked hiking trails in Aurlandsdalen Valley and many other places around the Sognefjord. Glacier hiking at the Jostedalen glacier – the largest glacier on main land Europe – is an unique experience. There is
also three National tourist routes in the area – Sognefjellet, Aurlandsfjellet (“the Snowroad”) and Gaularfjellet, with attractions such as the viewpoints Stegastein and “Utsikten”.
Summertime offers classic fjord experiences. In the autumn the air is clear and the fjord is dressed in beautiful autumn colors – the best time of the year for hiking and cycling. The autumns shifts to the “Winter Fjord” with magical fjord light, alpine ski touring, snow shoe walks, ski resorts, cross country skiing, fjord kayaking, RIB-safari, fjord cruises, the Flåm railway and guided tours to the magical blue ice caves under the glacier. The spring breakes in with flowering and snow powdered mountain tops – maybe the best time of year to visit the Sognefjord.
Welcome, any time of year!
