A curated journey through the experience
Bergenhus Fortress
Leaving Bergen we drive past some of the sights. The Medieval fortress of Bergenhus is one of them.
1 minuteOsterøy Bridge
Our first stop is at the viewpoint right after crossing the bridge over the fjord.
10 minutesDale of Norway Factory Outlet & Museum
Returning to mainland, we move on to Dale, where the famous sweater factory is located – “Dale of Norway”. We can visit the factory outlet and maybe pick up some woolen souvenirs there.
20 minutesSkipshelleren
Our next stop is at the Stone Age settlement on the Bolstadfjord: a short walk on a moderately steep trail is required.
30 minutesHesjedalsfossen
Moving on we come to yet another narrow fjord – the Eidsfjord – and make a stop at the magical Hesjedalsfossen waterfall: one of the most iconic sights, and yet an offbeat attraction.
10 minutesMo
We continue our journey and reach Mo (pronounced “Moo”) – a cosy village between two waterfalls: Geitaskaret and Kvernhusfossen. Here we can have lunch at a small restaurant/café overlooking the Mofjord and Geitaskaret waterfall.
40 minutesKvernhusfossen
In the winter, some of the waterfalls and fjords may be frozen.
15 minutesMostraumen
Our next and last stop on this tour is at the Mostraumen strait - the 600 meters long, very narrow channel connecting two fjords. During the tide there is a strong current here and, of course, an amazing view (regardless of the tide).
