Top 5 Norwegian Fjords

Updated March 2017

Best travelled by cruise, a trip to the Norwegian Fjords is a breathtaking experience that will take you on a rollercoaster of emotions, as you travel from one World Heritage site to the next.

Each fjord has its own unique beauty – we thought we’d share some of our favourites with you.

1. The Geirangerfjord

Majestic waterfalls and untouched beauty. The Geirangerfjord is located in the southwestern part of the country of Møre og Romsdal, north in Fjord Norway.

2. The Hardangerfjord

Near Bergen, in the middle of Fjord Norway,  Hardangerfjord, or the ‘orchard of Norway’, is best known for summer skiing, and the spectacular fruit trees that blossom there in spring.

3. The Sognefjord

Located in the southern part of the country, the Sognefjord is the longest fjord adventure in Norway, at 204 kilometres long and 1,308 metres deep.

4. The Nærøyfjord

A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Naeroyfjord is one of the most picturesque in the world.

5. The Lysefjord

Well known for the Preikestolen (the Pulpit rock), with dramatic views, Lysefjord is near to Stavanger, south in Fjord Norway.
