Stop at Fossen Bratte, an impressive 80-meter (262-foot) waterfall plunging in a near-vertical drop down the mountainside. Walk close enough to feel the refreshing mist on your skin, take stunning photos, and enjoy amazing views over the surrounding valley. This is one of those places where Norway's dramatic nature can be experienced.

Standing 46 metres (151 feet) tall, Steinsdalsfossen is not the largest waterfall in Norway, but it offers one of the country's most unique experiences. A path leads behind the waterfall, allowing you to walk behind the cascading water. With plenty of time to enjoy the stop, you can explore at your own pace. Walk behind the waterfall, capture memorable photos, browse the local souvenir shop, or relax with a coffee or ice cream. A nearby viewpoint also offers beautiful views across the Hardanger countryside, offering a good moment to make stunning pictures.

You will travel along the Hardangerfjord, the second longest fjord in Norway and one of the country’s 18 official National Scenic Routes. The route is known for its exceptional natural beauty, where steep mountains, calm fjord waters, waterfalls, and traditional fruit orchards come together to create one of Norway’s most iconic landscapes.

Experience a ferry crossing across the Hardangerfjord and get a small glimpse into daily life in Norway. Together with locals and travelers, you’ll sail through a peaceful fjord landscape surrounded by mountains, waterfalls, and small villages along the shoreline. During the crossing, you can stay comfortably seated and enjoy the changing views through the windows, or step outside to take photos and enjoy the fresh fjord air. Many guests also like to relax with a coffee while quietly taking in the scenery as the ferry travels across one of Norway’s most beautiful fjord regions.

Enjoy a scenic hike to the glacier lake Bondhusvatnet, also known as Bondhus Lake, located in the beautiful Folgefonna National Park. The walk follows an easy gravel path with a gentle incline, surrounded by peaceful forests, rivers, and stunning Norwegian nature. As you continue through the valley, the landscape gradually opens up and reveals the famous glacier lake. Depending on the light and time of day, the water changes colour from deep blue to turquoise green, creating a truly special atmosphere. High above the mountains, you may also spot part of the Folgefonna glacier in the distance.

On the second ferry crossing, you’ll explore a different part of the Hardangerfjord with new views and landscapes along the way. Many guests enjoy sitting comfortably inside and watching the changing scenery through the windows, while others prefer to step outside for photos and fresh fjord air.

Additional photo stops along the route allow you to experience more of the real Norwegian countryside beyond the main attractions. While traveling through valleys, mountains, and fjord landscapes, the guide may make extra scenic stops depending on the weather, light conditions, and season to create the best possible experience and photo opportunities throughout the journey.
