This impressive Norwegian fjord has a length of 15 kilometers and a maximum width of 1.5 kilometers at some points. It is a branch of the Storfjorden, another interesting fjord, and since 2005 is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as part of the West Norwegian Fjords.

The beautiful waterfalls that descend from the steep mountains are another attraction of this spectacular landscape. The most famous of all is the 'Seven Sisters Waterfall', an impressive display of seven separate streams cascading into the fjord from a height of over 200 meters. Directly opposite is 'The Pretender', a lone waterfall vying for attention. Many other waterfalls can be seen along the fjord, all of them worthy of admiration.

In addition to the natural wonders, Geirangerfjord offers a range of exciting activities. You can enjoy kayaking, hiking, mountain biking and, for the more courageous, even rock climbing. If you prefer a more leisurely pace, a boat trip on the fjord will allow you to marvel at the scenery while you relax and breathe in the fresh mountain air.

One of the best ways to experience the beauty of the fjord is on a water cruise. There are several cruises operating in the area, with different durations and destinations, offering breathtaking views of the fjord and waterfalls. It is also possible to admire this fjord from the well-known Ørnevegen (Eagle Road), a scenic route with several viewpoints. The highlight is the Geiranger Skywalk platform, a 1500-meter high viewpoint on the nearby Dalsnibba mountain, from where you can appreciate the immensity of the fjord and the surrounding landscape.

Sailing through its crystal blue waters and gazing at the snow-capped peaks reflected in its deep waters is just one of the ways to admire its beauty. From its beginning near the small town of Geiranger to its end in the Sunnylvsfjorden, this fjord is full of unforgettable sights and experiences.

For those seeking a more exclusive experience, several luxury cruise ships cruise Geirangerfjord, offering everything from gourmet meals to spa services as you sail through the breathtaking scenery. At sunset, the sun dips into the fjord, bathing the mountains and waters in a palette of colors ranging from pink to gold. This is a sight you really don't want to miss.

Another way to explore the area is by hiking or trekking. There are a number of hiking trails in the area, offering panoramic views of the fjord and surrounding landscapes. One of the most popular hiking trails is the Fosseråsa National Hiking Route, which runs along the back of the Storsæter Waterfall, and from where you get a fabulous panoramic view of the fjord and its surroundings.

During the summer months, the fjord comes alive with an explosion of flora and fauna. It is not uncommon to see sea eagles soaring overhead, while on the steeper slopes, a host of terrestrial wildlife juggles with gravity. Spring and summer are also the perfect season to admire the splendor of Norwegian wild flowers and fruits, which add a splash of color to the landscape.

Also, the winter season, known as the Viking Season, provides a much quieter approach to enjoying the fjord due to the drop in the number of tourists compared to the summer. The landscape is covered with snow and ice, showing a sublime beauty where mysticism takes over the environment. The variety of activities to enjoy nature does not cease, incorporating and enhancing those where snow is the protagonist.

In addition to the natural beauty of the fjord, Geirangerfjord also has a rich cultural history. The region has been inhabited for centuries, with the picturesque village of Geiranger being a meeting place from which various sightseeing tours depart. This cozy village also has a variety of stores, cafes and restaurants where you can sample the delicious local cuisine.

It is also very interesting to visit Skageflå Mountain Farm, one of the many rural settlements on the slopes of Geirangerfjord. Although the road is steep, the panoramic views and the sense of peace and tranquility you get is utterly rewarding.

The Geirangerfjord is, in short, a breathtaking place and one of the most popular tourist destinations in Norway, being certified as a Sustainable Destination for its tourism development with minimal environmental impact.
