Rambling and mountain trips in the World Heritage landscape

Rambling and mountain walking in the Norwegian landscape are things most Norwegians value highly. More and more foreign guests are also discovering the pleasure of being out and about in our countryside. In the fjord and mountain country around Geirangerfjorden everything is right for walking experiences.

Top 10 - hiking and mountain trips

There are well marked paths throughout the area, good maps are available and there are plenty of different routes to choose from, from gentle strolls to tough summit trips. Or perhaps from tourist hut to tourist hut on Tafjordfjella for those who want longer tours. You are close to nature everywhere and experience things you will never forget!

Here are 6 suggestions for unforgettable tours:
* Skageflå – by boat from Geiranger out to Skagehola, then walk up to the farm, some 800 feet above. There are brilliant views over Geirangerfjorden and the Seven Sisters. The return journey takes 3 hours on foot or you can be fetched by the boat. This simply has to be experienced!
* The Trondheim Post-Road – from Hellesylt/Ljøen to Strandadalen, over historic ground and with a fantastic view over Sunnylvsfjorden, the entrance to Geirangerfjorden and the Alps of Sunnmøre.
* Storsæterfossen in Geiranger – this waterfall is approx half an hour’s walk from Westerås farm. You can go behind the waterfall and see the water thundering down in front of you – a wild experience!
* Kilstivatnet in Eidsdal – rambling along paths, round the idyllic lake and along to the old summer pasture at the end of it. You can make a detour to one of the mountaintops in the area, which range from low to very high.
* Laushornet in Geiranger – a tough tour that takes you to spectacular views over the World Heritage Area.
* From tourist hut to tourist hut in Tafjordfjella, where the Norwegian Trekking Association has put everything in place for walking enthusiasts of all ages.

Have a good trip!
