This place was spectacular! I was here today (09/12/2023)…read morewhile on the Norwegian Prima. I got lots of wonderful photos of the Fjords and Waterfalls. When it was not raining, you felt like you were in a fairytale. There were several viewpoints you could walk to and take photos from. I took a bus tour that took me all over Geiranger and we climbed lots of mountains/fjords, saw lots of waterfalls, and tried various foods. I cannot wait to come back! *Tip-Only downfall was lots of tourists but it is a touristy place to see.

Rather than one huge waterfall it is a series of smaller but still impressive drops. We were there in the "dry" season so unfortunately we didn't get the full fury and effect of the thundering water but it still was pretty amazing. The noise was deafening in places and you could feel the spray on your face. The walk has boardwalks so you can get close to the falls without killing yourself and numerous observation platforms to stop and get a good look at things. There are ruins and remains of obviously man made structures like mill dams that were taken out by various and numerous floods that come off the mountain and glaciers. A very cool and wonderful thing to do while in Geiranger, Norway. There are many waterfalls in this part of the country, and it seems everyone is unique, beautiful and worth spending some time at.
I want to hike up there. Sure you do.
A lovely place
Remains of something, probably a dam
We were on a Fjords cruise and enjoyed 3 adventures with Norway excursions. Briksdal glacier ,…read moreGeiranger, and Ålesund. The glacier hike is beautiful and we had the very best weather to enjoy it! Geiranger weather wasn't as kind and the snow shortened our trip but of the 3, this location wasn't our favorite. Alesund was amazing from seeing the historical houses to climbing the lighthouse to the tour of the city center.. our guide was wonderful and the day magical!!
Spectacular view over the entire city and surrounding waterways! Well worth either the hike or…read moredrive up to the top. The hike is much more satisfying since you can see great views all the way up. At 418 steps, it is rather a climb, but there is also a restaurant at the top to refresh you!

One of the best values in Alesund. You board in the Cruise Ship dock area.

Each seat had a set of headphones and you can choose the volume and the language from 5 different languages. I recommend taking this first thing on arrival to the city. You get a great overview of what you might want to come back and see later. Plus the views from the top are indescribable. The only problem is the seats are very hard and uncomfortable. You feel every bump. So be careful if you have a bad back. Also this is not wheel chair accessible.
