Discover the famous Geirangerfjord

The UNESCO listed fjord landscape

When you see it, there is no wonder why the Geirangerfjord is on UNESCO’s World Heritage list. The fjord is surrounded by a pristine landscape of steep, tall mountains and cascading waterfalls such as the Knivsflå waterfalls which is known as the Seven Sisters and the the Suitor. The small farms you can see clinging to the mountain sides, seems almost uninhabitable. They have stayed more or less untouched in modern times and are only accessible by boat and foot.

Together with the Nærøyfjord, the Geirangerfjord has been on the World Heritage List since 2005 as West Norwegian Fjords. According to UNESCO, the two fjords are considered as archetypical fjord landscapes and among the most scenically outstanding anywhere.  

Explore Geiranger

While a cruise on the fjord is the main highlight, take the time to explore the charming village when you are in Geiranger. In the main street you find small individual stores selling locally produced items, such as mouth-watering chocolate. Fossestien is a path following the impressive waterfall from the fjord up to Hotel Union Geiranger. At the top you can pay a visit to the Norwegian Fjord Centre to learn more about the geology of the landscape and culture by the fjord.

There are several viewpoints in the hills above the town centre with spectacular views towards the fjord. If you do not have your own car to take you there, opt to hire an electrical bicycle or eMobility car from the town centre. Read more about what to do in Geiranger here.

Geirangerfjord Cruise Port Guide | 7 Best Things To Do In Geiranger

Welcome to Geirangerfjord cruise port, a crown jewel of Norwegian fjords nestled in the Sunnmøre region in the western part of Norway. The spectacular Geiranger Fjord has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and was named by Lonely Planet as the best travel destination in Scandinavia.

Located in the Stranda Municipality, Geirangerfjord is a branch of the Storfjorden (Great Fjord). Sailing into the fjord is an unforgettable sight that you cannot compare with any other! I visited this stunning place years ago and I still remember how amazing it was when we sailed in.

In this Geirangerfjord travel guide, I give you an overview of Geiranger cruise port along with 7 best things to do on a cruise to this breathtaking cruise destination.

Geirangerfjord Cruise Port

1. geiranger cruise terminal.

The port of Geirangerfjord is located in the small village of Geiranger, tucked between towering mountains and breathtaking scenery. A small Geiranger Cruise Terminal can accommodate one cruise ship at a time, however, the majority of large cruise ships tender and transfer cruise passengers to the pier via tender boats.

This cruise terminal is adjacent to Geiranger Ferry Terminal, from where you can embark on fjord cruises that depart approximately every hour. Geiranger Tourist Information is available on-site, providing visitors with useful information on things to do in the area, taxis, e-bike rentals, fjord cruise timetables, etc.

Right next to the pier is a large parking for tour buses ready to take you on shore excursions to stunning viewpoints, waterfalls, and other points of interest.

Geiranger Hop on Hop off sightseeing bus departs every hour from the Geiranger cruise ship terminal to the iconic Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint. The circuit takes about 50 minutes and includes four stops.

Within a short walk from the pier, you’ll also find a restaurant, a cafe, a hotel, a small museum, and a grocery store.

Public buses are available, but this option is not recommended to cruise passengers as they do not run frequently.

2. Hellesylt Cruise Terminal

Cruise ships may also dock in Hellesylt cruise port , another small port located in Geirangerfjord, around 20 km/12 miles west of Geiranger village (the journey between the two cruise ports takes 1 hour 30 minutes because one part of it includes a ferry ride).

Hellesylt features facilities such as a tourist information kiosk, a few souvenir shops, cafes, restaurants, and hotels/campsites. Public transportation, a church and a hospital are close to the pier.

Cruise ships may dock or tender. It often happens that only cruise passengers who booked shore excursions are allowed to get off the ship, only to join tour buses waiting to transfer them to the nearby attractions.

Other passengers continue to Geiranger port where the ship can stay longer. You will get this information from your cruise line beforehand.

7 Best Things To Do In Geirangerfjord Cruise Port

1. geirangerfjord sightseeing cruise.

While the Geirangerfjord is undoubtedly stunning from the land, experiencing it from the water offers a unique perspective that simply can’t be matched! Your cruise ship may be offering one, but there are also local tour operators offering fjord cruises.

These cruises usually depart from Geiranger dock and include a couple of hours sailing along the magnificent fjord, allowing you to admire the attractions and wildlife up close.

You will have the opportunity to admire the spectacular Seven Sisters Waterfall , the 410-meter (1,350 ft)-high waterfall that consists of seven separate streams that look absolutely breathtaking from the water!

Other scenic locations include the Brudesløret (Bridal Veil) and Friaren waterfalls , and Devil’s Crevice, a narrow and dramatic geological formation showcasing the forces of nature with its deep and steep fissure carved into the rugged landscape.

From the port, it’s often just a short walk to the designated pier where the sightseeing cruises depart. You can opt for a catamaran sightseeing cruise, a fjord safari on a high-speed RIB vessel, or a relaxing kayaking adventure.

If you prefer to explore independently, it’s possible to rent kayaks from local operators and embark on a self-guided paddling adventure. While this option requires a bit more planning and coordination, it offers the flexibility to customize your itinerary and explore at your own pace.

For those staying here for more days (or if you are staying overnight at port), full-day cruises to the famous Alesund located around 108 km/67 miles to the northwest are also available.

2. The Seven Sisters Waterfall

The Seven Sisters Waterfall is a breathtaking natural spectacle nestled within a short driving distance from the port. The 410-meter (1,350 ft)-high waterfall consists of seven distinct cascades flowing down the steep mountainside, with an average free fall of around 250 meters (820 ft).

Legend has it that the “Seven Sisters” remained unmarried, while the waterfall on the opposite side of the fjord earned the name “The Suitor” due to numerous unsuccessful attempts to court the sisters.

From the port in Geiranger, it’s possible to reach the Seven Sisters Waterfall on a fjord cruise, but also by a combination of driving and hiking. Both cruise lines and independent tour operators offer organized excursions to the viewpoints from where you can admire the Seven Sisters Waterfall.

Explore Seven Sisters Waterfall tours and activities

3. Eagle’s Bend Viewpoint

Take a spectacular ride up the Eagle Road to see one of Geiranger’s most mesmerizing views – the Eagle’s Bend. This viewpoint, located high above the Geirangerfjord, provides jaw-dropping panoramic views that will take your breath away!

Also known as Ørnesvingen Viewpoint, this scenic overlook is located along Geiranger-Trollstigen National Tourist Route around a 15-minute drive from the port of Geirangerfjord. You can visit it by car or on a guided bus tour.

Check out Eagle’s Bend tours and activities

4. Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint

Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint is an iconic observation point located only a 10-minute drive from the cruise port, offering unparalleled views of the majestic Geirangerfjord and its surrounding landscape. You can either drive, take a Hop on Hop off bus, or hike up for about an hour to reach the viewpoint.

Perched atop steep cliffs, the viewpoint provides a breathtaking panorama of the deep blue fjord waters, dramatic mountainsides, and cascading waterfalls. This is also the best spot to observe the toy-sized cruise ships. A small parking is available on-site.

Explore Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint tours

5. Dalsnibba Mountain

Only 20 km/12.5 miles (a 40-minute drive) southeast of Geiranger cruise port is Dalsnibba Mountain, a towering peak that offers panoramic views of the Geirangerfjord and its surrounding landscape.

At an elevation of over 1,476 meters above sea level, Dalsnibba Viewpoint (Dalsnibba Utsiktspunkt) offers visitors a breathtaking vistas of the iconic Geirangerfjord, lush valleys, and snow-capped peaks in the distance.

Dalsnibba Mountain is best visited on a guided shore excursion, but you can also reach it by bus or car via the iconic Eagle Road (Ørnevegen). A cafe and a souvenir shop are available on-site.

Explore Dalsnibba Mountain tours and activities

6. Geiranger Church

Step back in time and discover the historic Geiranger Church, a wooden church rich in history located within a 15-minute walk from the cruise ship terminal. Built in the traditional Norwegian stave church style, the church originally dates from the 15th century and is surrounded by a small cemetery.

As you enter the Geiranger Church, you’ll be impressed by its rustic charm and stunning hilltop location overlooking breathtaking mountains and waterfalls. Keep in mind that the church may be closed sometimes, but both the exterior view of the church and its location make it worth coming!

7. Hiking Adventure

If you prefer a more adventurous and adrenaline-pumped holiday, a hiking trip will provide you with an ideal opportunity to immerse yourself in the pristine wilderness that surrounds the fjord.

Many guided hiking tours are available, led by knowledgeable local guides who can provide insight into the area’s flora, wildlife, and cultural history.

These tours typically depart from designated meeting points near the port and transport participants to the starting point of the hike. Alternatively, for those who prefer to explore independently, there are numerous hiking trails accessible from the village of Geiranger.

From gentle paths that meander along the fjord’s edge to challenging climbs that lead to panoramic viewpoints, there’s a trail for every skill level and interest!

Geiranger Cruise Port Guide

A Geiranger cruise with Celebrity takes you the length of one of the most spectacular Norwegian fjords, so pristinely beautiful that it’s protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Sheer cliffs plunge into the deep blue water, while waterfalls cascade down rock faces and snow-capped mountains tower all around. 

At the head of the Geirangerfjord, the sleepy village of Geiranger lies surrounded by lush meadows. This serene little spot is the gateway to some of the most thrilling highlights of Norway cruises : rugged mountain scenery, spectacular hikes, kayaking on the fjord, and a number of cultural attractions. Cruises to Geiranger are the perfect way to admire Norway’s natural attractions and learn more about the Norwegian way of life.

Top sights & attractions on cruises to geiranger, views from eagle’s bend road.

You won’t have to look far to find spectacular views amid all this pristine nature. Ornevegen (Eagle’s Bend Road), the steepest section of the road that connects Geiranger and Eidsdal, zigzags through 11 hair-raising switchbacks up a mountain face to 2,030 feet above the fjord. From here, you’ll have a jaw-dropping panoramic view of the Geirangerfjord, where your ship is reduced to a toy-sized speck, dwarfed by towering mountains and tumbling waterfalls.

Adventures on Two Wheels

Norwegians embrace the outdoors, and you’ll find the Geiranger area packed with opportunities for adventure. For a thrilling guided cycling tour, take a coach up to Djupvasshytta Lodge, high above the fjord. You’ll be kitted out with a bike and helmet and then set off to freewheel down the 4,000-foot descent. Breathe in the invigorating mountain air and take in the vistas of the fjord below as you make your way down at your own pace.

Geiranger Village & Storfossen

Tiny Geiranger village is a joy to explore. You’ll see old boathouses and a pretty wooden church dating back to 1842. Any tour of the village includes the nearby Storfossen waterfall, where some 300 shallow steps take you alongside the rushing river, with sweeping views down over the houses and pastures. Fjord guides explain the history and ecology of the area. In spring, when the river is powerful with meltwater, prepare to get wet in the spray.

View All Geiranger Shore Excursions

Top things to do in geiranger, hike to storseterfossen waterfall.

Join a guided hike from the trailhead at Hole to the historic Westerås Farm, run as a sustainable tourism enterprise. The highlight of the hike, which takes you through lush meadows and past mountain streams, is Storsetrefossen, a waterfall that tumbles dramatically over an overhanging rock. You’ll stop at the historic farm where you can enjoy a much-deserved treat of coffee and waffles piled high with cream.

Visit the Norwegian Fjord Centre

If you want to learn more about the history of the Norwegian fjords, pay a visit to the Norwegian Fjord Centre, a low-rise stone and glass structure on the bank of a rushing river. Inside, there’s a clever series of exhibits explaining the geology and geography of the fjords, as well as an evocative film that immerses you in nature. Learn about the biodiversity of the fjords and how animal species have adapted to life here. There’s a welcoming café and a shop focusing on sustainable products.

Brave the Geiranger Skywalk

High up on Mt. Dalsnibba, the Geiranger Skywalk is a viewing platform that gives you the impression of being suspended between sky and fjord. A glass guard rail means there’s no visible barrier between you and the length of the Geirangerfjord, stretching out hundreds of feet below, while snowy mountains form a dramatic, jagged backdrop. There’s no better photo opportunity in Geiranger. Anybody less keen on sheer drop-offs can still enjoy sweeping fjord views from the cozy café.

Top Food & Drink in Geiranger

Norwegian cuisine is closely connected to the land and sea, and is fresh and seasonal. In summer, you’ll find an abundance of berries, including cloudberries, strawberries, raspberries, and lingonberries, adorning both sweet and savory dishes. Expect a lot of fish, including salt-cured versions, and embrace the chance to try reindeer and elk, both lean, nutritious meats. For a traditional snack, you’ll find plenty of cafés serving heart-shaped Norwegian waffles topped with jam and whipped cream. Some come with the distinctive caramel-flavored brunost cheese, considered by many visitors as an acquired taste.

Culture & History of Geiranger

Geiranger is a tiny little town; there are only around 250 permanent residents, although it’s a major tourism center for the fjords. Like the rest of the fjords, this is a landscape carved by glaciers thousands of years ago; the fjords are actually inlets that flooded with seawater when the ice retreated. Until the dawn of tourism, life revolved around farming the high pastures, and you can still see a couple of old farms seemingly hanging off the cliff edges.

Norwegians living in remote areas like this have a deep connection to nature and generally live a very healthy, outdoor life, hiking and cycling in summer and skiing in winter. Midsummer is celebrated for the nearly 24 hours of daylight, while in winter, a sense of koselig, or “coziness,” is invoked with blazing fires, candles, soft light, hot drinks, and comfort food.

Geiranger Cruise Port Facilities & Location

Since Geiranger is so small, there’s no cruise terminal right in town. Instead, your ship will dock next to a floating pier so you can walk ashore. If more than one ship is visiting, you may drop anchor and reach the dock by tender boat.

Transportation in Geiranger

There’s no public transportation in Geiranger to speak of; this is a small village, and while there is a local taxi company, you’d need to book a car in advance. You can also walk around the town. A convenient way to take in some of the best views is the Panorama Bus, a one-and-a-half hour bus ride that stops at Flydalsjuvet, for fantastic views down the fjord, and Eagle Bend, from where you can photograph the Seven Sisters waterfall. A second hop-on, hop-off bus departs the cruise terminal and stops at the Norwegian Fjord Centre, Westerås Farm, and Flydalsjuvet viewpoint.

Shopping Near the Geiranger Cruise Port

Since Geiranger is so small, it’s not hard to find the shops—just head to the main pedestrian street. Look out for local knitwear as well as troll figurines and pewter items. Cloudberry jam makes a great edible souvenir as you can’t find it in many places beyond Norway, as does the unusual brunost brown cheese. A great place to shop is Geiranger Sjokolade for homemade chocolate in unique flavors like cloudberry, as well as preserves in local berry flavors. For clothing, the shop at the Geiranger Skywalk has a good range of hats, gloves, scarves, and other knitwear.

Local Currency & Tipping Customs

Norway’s currency is the Norwegian krone. You’ll find an ATM dispensing Norwegian krone at the supermarket in town. There is also a place to exchange currency in the Fjordbuda souvenir shop. 

Norway does not have much of a tipping culture. Guides do not expect to be tipped (although they won’t be insulted if you do tip) and nor do restaurant staff. You could leave a cash tip on the table for good service, but 5% to 10% is the norm.

Enjoy a powerful and peaceful close contact with raw and rugged nature, whether you're here when the landscape glows with autumn colours, when it's covered in snow and ice, or when it bursts with spring.

A completely different calm hangs over the landscape in autumn, winter and spring: the air is crisper, the light clearer and the shadows deeper.

On the fjord boat The trip travels with our modern fjord boat from the narrow strait in the seaside town of Ålesund and up the fjord towards the heart of the UNESCO area - Geiranger. Sitting comfortably on the fjord boat, you can experience how the mood changes as the landscape changes: from the open horizons of the coast to the most dramatic and mysterious fjords inland.

The last half hour of the journey passes through the vast Geirangerfjord, past abandoned fjord farms, high mountains and powerful waterfalls. Perhaps head up on deck for a light, refreshing shower of mountain water on your face?

The fjord ranger will tell and tell about how glaciers, rivers and other forces have shaped the landscape, about the great diversity of plants and animals that live here, and about the people who found themselves in completely incredible places.

Norwegian Fjords Cruises

See Baltic, Scandinavia and Norways breathtaking scenery and natural wonders

Geirangerfjord

Geirangerfjord, one of Norway’s most popular tourist destinations is a fjord formed when a glacier retreats, after carving its typical U-shaped valley, and the sea fills the resulting valley floor. Norway’s breathtaking fjords are a must-see on every visit to the country. They are unquestionably what the country is most famous for and the primary motivator for many travelers to visit. Since many of the Norwegian shores are formed by these long, narrow inlets surrounded by saline water, Norwegian Fjords cruises are fantastic ways to explore magical fjords. The Geirangerfjord is considered to be one of the best-known.

Cruising Geirangerfjord

One of the most popular ways to see Norway is from the water, and the Geirangerfjord is a popular destination for cruise ships. Cruising the area known as the “jewel of the Norwegian fjords” will not leave you bored. Geirangerfjord is a deep blue fjord surrounded by snowy mountains, roaring waterfalls, and verdant landscapes. In addition to being the best-preserved UNESCO World Heritage Site, National Geographic has recognized the Geirangerfjord for its exceptional beauty. The natural beauty of the area is unquestionably its greatest selling point. A cruise through this remote region of the fjords is the ideal way to see its tiny fjord arms and steep mountains plunging into the deep blue ocean—a journey unlike any other. Geirangerfjord is home to crystal-clear seas, mystical mountains, towering waterfalls, and abandoned mountain farms.

From the Atlantic coast south of Alesund, a 15-kilometer-long arm of the Storfjord (Great Fjord), known as the Geirangerfjord, cuts in. Although it’s one of the tiniest fjords in the area, the Geirangerfjord is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful. Its snakelike contour cuts deep into the interior, and it is characterized by a number of spectacular waterfalls. At each end, the villages of Hellesylt (to the west) and Geiranger (to the east) dot the landscape. There are several derelict farms lining the shores of the fjord. Skagefla, Knivsfla, and Blomberg are the three most frequented farms. While the others can only be seen from the fjord, Skagefla may be accessed on foot from Geiranger.

Hellesylt and Geiranger

Located at the far eastern end of Geirangerfjord, Geiranger is a small village and rural community. It attracts both domestic and international tourists, and hence has both large and small hotels. Geirangerfjord makes a steep curve to the north and becomes Sunnylvsfjord about west of the settlement of Hellesylt. Hellesylt may seem small and unremarkable, but the nearby Norangsdalen valley is breathtaking.

Geirangerfjord waterfalls

Another waterfall in the fjord is called Brudesloret (the bridal veil) because it cascades so gently over one rocky edge that, when backlit by the sun, it resembles a thin veil draped over the rocks.

Explore cruises to Geirangerfjord

Cruises to the Norwegian Fjords, with Geirangerfjord as a selling point, are most popular in the summer when the weather is pleasant and there are more options for outdoor activities. In the fall, Geirangerfjord is a great place to visit because the leaves are bright and beautiful.

This are pretty ridiculous hours to be in Geiranger when you know that one of the best thing about Geiranger is the actual sailing on the Geirangerfjord going in or coming out. It's a good thing there is a decent amount of daylight in May, mid-May the sun rises around 4.30am and sets around 10.30pm. So I strongly advise you to get up early and enjoy the fjord scenery in the morning while the ship is sailing in (and maybe worth it in the evening also after departure).

I'm sure you can find fjord excursions when in Geiranger, but paying more to see the same scenery you have sailed through on the way there makes no sense to me (unless you can find a totally different experience such as kayaking for instance?). Or try to find an excursion that would take you by road overlooking the fjord to have a different point of view.

Or just enjoy the little village and take a nap to recover from your early morning rise ;)

Go for a walk or take taxi to Ørnesvingen.

There are several trails in the area. The route up to Vesterås Farm starts just beyond the Hotel Union. From the farm, it’s an easy walk over to the Vesteråsfjellet overlook, or a more challenging trail to the Løsta overlook.

I believe the local trail map is available for purchase from the tourist office, but it’s also offered free online: http://www.geirangerfjord.no/upload/pdf/TurKart.pdf

Good advice. Thank you.

Thanks, I'll check into this.
