Top Things to do in Hordaland
The 6 Best Bodies of Water in Hordaland, Western Norway
Lying at the heart of Norway’s Western Fjord area, Hordaland is home to culturally rich Bergen, the country’s second largest city. Hardangerfjord, Norway’s second-longest fjord (and the third-longest in the world), is here too, and cruising along its scenic 110 miles is a top area activity. Leirvik, the second-biggest town in Hordaland, has the interesting open-air Sunnhordland Folk Museum. Set atop one of the country’s biggest glaciers, Folgefonna National Park has a popular summer ski center.

I did this as Hardanger in a Nutshell tour, so all travel was sorted. First a train from Bergen to Voss a bus to Ulvik passing an awesome rainbow shrouded waterfall, then onto the fjord cruise ????. Seamlessly timed to perfection. The Vøringsfoss Waterfall and Maagdal Canyon were beautiful. The trip to Hardanger Nature Centre wasn’t as great a success- if you’re prone to vertigo or sea sickness, you might want to skip the move as the aerial swooping over 5 shaped screens apparently affects quite a few people, myself included. Have a coffee or lunch instead or check out the gift shop. Back on the boat and a bus back to Bergen, all through beautiful scenery.A great day and good value

Beautiful fountain in the middle of the lake surrounded by breathtaking flower beds, rhododendron gardens, sculptures, views, and art museums. A thriving park in the middle of the city.
