Description
Fossevandring Geiranger is a fascinating route along the waterfalls, offering an unforgettable experience for nature and history lovers.
The two-hour hike takes you up 327 steps and viewing platforms, providing spectacular views of the mighty Storfossen waterfall and the scenic fjord.
Along the way, you can explore two historic hydroelectric plants, learning about the history of the pioneers who used hydropower. The route is most beautiful in the spring, when melting snow causes the river to reach its peak, creating a dramatic spectacle of nature.

💦 Fossevandring – Nature’s Staircase in Geiranger
Fossevandring is a stunning waterfall walk that blends wild Norwegian nature with sleek, modern architecture. The trail follows the powerful Storfossen waterfall via a series of metal staircases and platforms, offering dramatic views and the soothing roar of cascading water. It’s an easy-to-moderate hike, taking about 20–30 minutes depending on your pace, and is accessible from the town center or the Norwegian Fjord Centre.
What makes it special? You’re not just walking beside a waterfall—you’re practically in it. The spray kisses your skin, and the see-through grating underfoot adds a thrilling touch. Along the way, you’ll find photo-worthy viewpoints, benches for reflection, and even nighttime lighting for a romantic stroll.
Whether you’re arriving by cruise or staying nearby, Fossevandring is a must-do experience that captures the essence of Geiranger’s natural beauty.
Rich Ca year agoLovely spot to visit, a short walk from the centre of Geiranger, there are stairs taking you up directly adjacent to the waterfall, you cam either come back down the same way, or alternatively take the road route (and stop at the church on the way for more photo opportunities).
