Beautiful Hardanger
The Explore Hardangerfjord round trip can be started both from Bergen and Oslo. If you choose to start from Bergen, you start by train on the Bergen Railway from Bergen to Voss. From Voss the tour continues by coach through attractive farmland to Ulvik, a delightful village typical of Western Norway. In Ulvik you go by boat across the beautiful Hardangerfjord to Eidfjord. You can also start the roundtrip by coach from Bergen.
Vøringsfossen waterfall
In Eidfjord you can take an interesting sightseeing tour or just relax beside the fjord, wander round the centre of Eidfjord, enjoy some lunch and visit the excellent Gallery N. Bergslien.
If you choose the sightseeing tour you will explore Vøringsfossen, the biggest waterfall in Norway, and a visit to the experience centre, the Hardangervidda Nature Centre.
The Hardangerfjord
A fjord cruise on the Hardangerfjord is next, with views of towering mountains, waterfalls and idyllic orchards and plenty of time on board to digest the many impressions before the boat arrives in Norheimsund. If you are travelling at the beginning of June, you will probably catch some of the lovely blossoming of the fruit trees in Hardanger.
From Norheimsund, the tour continues by coach passing the impressive Steindalsfossen waterfall to Bergen, crossing the Kvamskogen mountain plateau.
