Norwegian fjords are deep, narrow bodies of water carved by glaciers during the Ice Age, where steep cliffs appear from the water’s edge. It is a must see!
Top Fjords to Visit
Geirangerfjord
Known for its stunning waterfalls, including the Seven Sisters and Suitor Falls. With its pristine, turquoise water and dramatic scenery, it’s a favorite for photographers and nature lovers alike.
Sognefjord
Known as the “King of the Fjords,” Sognefjord is Norway’s longest and deepest fjord, stretching over 200 kilometers (124 miles). The fjord features several charming villages, such as Flam and Balestrand.
Nærøyfjord
A branch of Sognefjord, Nærøyfjord is one of the narrowest fjords in the world, giving visitors a close-up view of the towering cliffs on either side. This fjord inspired the kingdom of Arendelle in Disney’s “Frozen” movies.
Best Time to Visit
Summer (June to August) is the most popular time with mild weather, long days, and bustling villages. Fall (September to October) brings vibrant autumn colors, while winter (December to February) offers the magical sight of snow-covered fjords, and the chance to see the Northern Lights.
