Naeroyfjord

Bergen · Norway

Nærøyfjord is the narrowest fjord in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a dramatic arm of the Sognefjord in western Norway where sheer mountain walls rise 1,800 meters on both sides to create an intimate, almost claustrophobic channel of startling beauty. The fjord's emerald green water, waterfalls, tiny farms clinging to impossibly steep slopes, and ancient Viking history make it Norway's most spectacular cruise destination.

Aurland
Sightseeing

Aurland

Aurland and the Aurlandsfjord in western Norway offer one of the country's most spectacular and accessible fjord landscapes, with the Stegastein viewpoint's dramatic platform cantilevered 650 meters above the fjord providing one of Norway's most iconic views. The nearby village of Flåm is the terminus of the Flåmsbana — arguably the world's most scenic railway, descending 20 km from the Myrdal mountain station through waterfalls and gorges. Aurland also forms part of the Nærøyfjord UNESCO World Heritage landscape.

Hardangerfjord
Sightseeing

Hardangerfjord

Hardangerfjord is Norway's second-longest fjord and one of the most beautiful in Scandinavia, stretching 179 km inland through dramatic mountain landscapes in western Norway. Famous for its fruit orchards — particularly apple and cherry blossoms in spring — and the thundering Vøringsfossen waterfall, it offers scenic cruises and hiking among glaciers and waterfalls. The Hardangervidda mountain plateau above the fjord is Scandinavia's largest national park.
