During the short 15-minute crossing, you can step outside to enjoy the fresh sea air and take in the beautiful fjord views – a peaceful and memorable moment in the heart of Western Norway’s landscape.
As we arrive in Mundheim, we’re greeted by the magnificent Hardanger fjord at its most expansive.
Here, the fjord stretches wide between towering mountains and shimmering blue waters, offering one of the most breathtaking panoramas along the route.
This is one of the tour’s most scenic photo stops – a perfect moment to pause, take in the view, and capture the beauty of Western Norway’s fjord landscape.
Strandebarm is a beautiful village nestled along the shores of the Hardangerfjord.
This is a place where nature and culture go hand in hand – with roots dating back to the Viking Age and a rich tradition of fruit farming and craftsmanship.
Here, you’ll experience the authentic spirit of Western Norway, surrounded by small farms, blooming orchards, and a peaceful atmosphere that can only be found in the heart of the fjord landscape.
The peaceful village of Tørvikbygd lies along the scenic shores of the Hardangerfjord and gives a real glimpse into authentic rural life in Western Norway.
Surrounded by rolling hills, fruit orchards, and traditional farms, this little place is perfect for slowing down and enjoying the fjord landscape.
A highlight of the tour is Berge Farm & Garden, a family-run farm known for its colorful flower fields and rich fruit trees.

After following the Hardangerfjord’s scenic shoreline, we arrive in Norheimsund – the vibrant heart of the Hardanger region.
With the fjord stretching out before you and majestic mountains rising behind, this charming village perfectly captures the essence of Western Norway.
In spring, the surrounding orchards burst into stunning white and pink blossoms, transforming the landscape into a living postcard.
Later, during harvest season, the air fills with the scent of ripe apples, and the area comes alive with tastings and local festivals celebrating Hardanger’s proud fruit-growing traditions.
The scenic waterfront promenade invites you to take a peaceful stroll and enjoy beautiful views of the fjord, where nature and village life blend in perfect harmony.
Located just outside Norheimsund, Steinsdalsfossen is one of Norway’s most popular waterfalls.
Standing 50 metres high, it’s particularly famous for the path that runs behind the waterfall, allowing visitors to walk dry-shod and feel the power of the water up close.
Take a walk behind the rushing cascade for a truly unique experience – and don’t forget your camera!
Steinsdalsfossen is a favourite spot among photographers, offering countless opportunities to capture the beauty of Hardanger’s landscape.
We will stay at Steinsdalsfossen for about 30 minutes.
One of the most dramatic waterfalls along the route, Fossen Bratte – often called “The Bride’s Veil” because of its elegant white spray – is known for its impressive 80-meter drop and the powerful roar that echoes through the valley.
Today, the road passes through a tunnel behind the waterfall, but after parking, we can follow the old road to reach the top of the fall.
You can also choose to go the opposite way - down to the bottom of this mighty cascade, where you can truly feel the strength of the water.
Your guide is always with you, helping you find your way, take the best photos, and enjoy the best possible experience.
We will stay at Fossen Bratte for about 30 minutes.
