The Geirangerfjord is without doubt the most beautiful of the Norwegian fjords. Impressive mountains, numerous waterfalls as well as farms clinging to the steep hillsides give the fjord its unique character. From the landing stage in the tiny village of Geiranger the drive goes uphill past the wooden, octagonal Geiranger Church, through the wild Flydal valley where a stop is made on top of an overhanging cliff. From the top of this gorge Flydalsjuvet one can enjoy the spectacular view of the village of Geiranger, the fjord and its surrounding mountains. The drive continues up numerous hairpin bends to Lake Djupvatn and follows the fascinating toll road to the summit of Mount Dalsnibba (1.500 metres.) From here there is an amazing panorama of mountains, waterfalls and lakes, and far below you can see the Geirangerfjord by clear weather.
