Trip #2
The myths of the Geirangerfjord
About this trip
What secrets lie behind the magnificent views and wonders that Geiranger has to offer? In the heart of the UNESCO-protected Geirangerfjord, we uncover small and forgotten stories that have lain dormant for hundreds of years. We invite you to learn more – and discover it in the most exciting way: from a kayak. We take you to places like Bringælva Waterfall, and maybe even catch a glimpse of mythical creatures along the way, as we reveal the legends and stories behind them.
The Geirangerfjord is one of two Norwegian fjords that are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We are proud to invite you to experience nature up close, while at the same time sharing the rich history that stretches back many centuries. Join us on a unique storytelling experience surrounded by legendary places such as the Seven Sisters waterfall and the Skageflå mountain farm. We offer small and intimate groups, so that the experience is personalized and tailored to your wishes.
