Best of Geiranger Learn

Would you like to explore Geiranger in a unique way and learn more about the World Heritage and the western Norwegian fjord landscape at the same time? With Best of Geiranger Learn you can get both! This trip combines an hour-long guided tour in the fjord landscape via GPS in a small, green electric car with an educational and exciting visit to the Norwegian Fjord Centre. When you pick up the car, you decide whether you want to drive the trip towards 1. Ørnevegen or 2. Flydalsjuvet. We recommend that you park the car at the Fjord Center after the e-car trip, then you can experience the waterfall walk on your way down again towards the centre.

Ørnevegen: First, drive through the village of Geiranger, along the fjord and up Ørnevegen (the Eagle's Road) which winds up the many hairpin bends to the famous viewpoint Ørnesvingen (Eagle's Bend). Here, you will get a fabulous view of the fjord, towards the magnificent Seven Sisters waterfall and small mountain farms. If you walk a few minutes from Ørnesvingen, you will find the UNESCO plaque and a path that leads to another incredibly beautiful vantage point, a little away from the traffic. Maybe it can be good to sit here for a while, to really "feel" the view and the eternal fjord.

Flydalsjuvet: This panoramic tour has several stopping points. First, you drive up towards the mountain in the east to Flydalsjuvet, where you can sit on a throne and enjoy the view of the fjord and dizzying depths. Furthermore, the journey goes up the green slopes towards the mountain farm Vesterås, where you get a magnificent view of the fjord and mountains.

The exhibitions at Norsk Fjordsenter tell you the stories about the exciting and distinctive fjord landscape that received World Heritage status from UNESCO in 2005. Through exhibitions and interactive stations, you get knowledge about the geological processes that created the fjord landscape, as well as seeing how the landscape looks today. You will also learn about the biological diversity and how animals and plants have adapted to the habitats here. The visitor centre has a separate exhibition and an engaging activity room for children. You will also find a pleasant café with delicious, small dishes and a shop with a focus on sustainable Norwegian high-quality products.
