Mountain biking
A good Geiranger insider tip is to cycle from Dalsnibba down to the fjord to enjoy the spectacular views along the way, rather than just looking from the skywalk. Discover famous waterfalls like "The Seven Sisters" and the Bridal Veil on a fjord boat cruise before cruise ships dock to experience the view without the large crowds. Explore the Flydalsjuvet viewpoint with its chair installation, or hike to the Homlongsætra mountain pasture for a different, lesser-known view of the fjord.
