Highlights

Flydalsjuvet View Point
Flydalsjuvet offers an impressive view and is an excellent point for photography, with a view over Geiranger and Geirangerfjorden with the many cruise boats. Some of Norway’s most popular travel photo images are taken here. Understandably why so, when you look at the view. Flydalsjuvet is located about 4 km from Geiranger, towards Grotli.
Geiranger
Geiranger is a small tourist village in Sunnmøre region of Møre og Romsdal county in the western part of Norway. It lies in the municipality of Stranda at the head of the Geirangerfjorden, which is a branch of the large Storfjorden. The nearest city is Ålesund. Geiranger is home to some of the most spectacular scenery in the world, and has been named the best travel destination in Scandinavia by Lonely Planet. Since 2005, the Geirangerfjord area has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Seven Sisters waterfall is located just west of Geiranger, directly across another waterfall called "The Suitor." Norwegian County Road 63 passes through the village. Geiranger Church is the main church for the village and surrounding area. Geiranger is under constant threat from landslides from the mountain Åkerneset into the fjord. A collapse could cause a tsunami that could destroy downtown Geiranger. For this reason, sirens have been installed to warn residents if a landslide should occur.
Geiranger Skywalk
Europe’s highest fjord view from a road. The spectacular platform, Geiranger Skywalk, guarantees you an airy experience. It is quite possibly the world’s finest view – 1500 m above sea level. The toll road, Nibbevegen, takes you from Djupvasshytta at 1038 m above sea level, to the viewpoint at Dalsnibba which is at approx 1500 m. You will have an unforgettable experience of fjord culture, views towards the snow-covered mountains, pure air and the World Heritage Area - all at the same time.
Geirangerfjord
The Geiranger Fjord is a fjord in the Sunnmøre region of Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located entirely in the Stranda Municipality. It is a 15-kilometer-long branch off the Sunnylvsfjorden, which is a branch of the Storfjorden (Great Fjord). The small village of Geiranger is located at the end of the fjord where the Geirangelva river empties into it. The fjord is one of Norway's most visited tourist sites. In 2005, it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, jointly with the Nærøyfjorden. This status was challenged by the disputed plans to build power lines across the fjord. The deep blue UNESCO-protected Geirangerfjord is surrounded by majestic, snow-covered mountain peaks, wild waterfalls and lush, green vegetation.
Lake Djupvatnet
Djupvatnet is a lake in the extreme southeastern Stranda Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The 2-square-kilometer lake lies at 1,016 meters above sea level. The lake is part of the headwaters of the Otta river system which flows southeast into the lake Breiddalsvatnet and on into Oppland county.
Mount Dalsnibba
Dalsnibba is a mountain in Stranda Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located at the end of the Geiranger valley, about 7 km south of the village of Geiranger and the Geirangerfjorden. The 2-square-kilometer lake Djupvatnet lies directly to the southeast of the mountain. The mountain is located very near the county border with both Oppland and Sogn og Fjordane counties, in the southeastern part of Møre og Romsdal county. Dalsnibba offers a good view and is therefore a popular tourist destination. Dalsnibba is often covered by snow even in the summer. The Norwegian County Road 63 passes along the south side of the mountain, and from that road, there is a private toll road called Nibbevegen, owned and operated by Geiranger Skysslag, that goes up to the summit of Dalsnibba, a drive of about 21 km from Geiranger. It was completed in 1939 but due to the Second World War, its official opening was delayed until July 19, 1948. The road was tarmacked in 2013.
Seven Sisters Waterfall
The Seven Sisters is the 39th tallest waterfall in Norway. The 410-metre tall waterfall consists of seven separate streams, and the tallest of the seven has a free fall that measures 250 metres. The waterfall is located along the Geirangerfjorden in Stranda Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway.
The Eagle Road
Ørnevegen – Eagle Road – is the name given to the steepest stretch of road up the mountainside from Geiranger to Eidsdal. The road waves through 11 hairpin curve up from the Geirangerfjord and to the highest point on the stretch, 620 meters above sea level at Korsmyra. The road was officially opened on 15th September 1955 and gave the village of Geiranger year-round road access. The road was an attraction from the very first day, and was called Eagle Road because at its highest point it passed through terrain that had traditionally been the domain of a large number of eagles. The name also reveals the wildness, the spectacular that tourists and others using the road will experience, especially if they stop at Ørnesvingen, the highest of the hairpins.
