Experience the Hardangerfjord by water and across land

Hardangerfjord Adventure organises excursions all year round. You can join in one of their fixed tours or arrange a trip just for your travel group.

The tours take place in RIB (Rubber Inflated Boats) boats. Enjoy an eventful and safe tour, wherever you go. Many of the tours start right at the Hardangerfjord Hotel - in other words, adventure is right on your doorstep!

Fjord safari

Experience the fascinating fjord landscape from the water on a fjord safari (45 or 90 minutes). Sit back and enjoy the view of the steep mountain slopes, idyllic little islands, remote settlements and old trading towns.

Fjord and salmon safari

On a fjord and salmon safari, you will experience the beautiful fjord landscape and learn more about local salmon production throughout history - and of course you can sample the local salmon alongside delicious apple juice or cider.

Fjord and mountain safari

If you want to combine experiences on the water with unique experiences on land, Hardangerfjord Adventure also offers excursions where you spend time on land.

If you prefer relaxing and leisurely excursions, you can choose a "panoramic trip", e.g. to the idyllic village of Botnagrend, which lies on the banks of the fjord.

If you want to take on more challenging mountain hikes, you can go on a day trip that includes both a beautiful tour on the fjord and a guided hike to some of the region's viewpoints, such as the mountain peaks Oksen or Samlen, the idyllically situated Ferienhaus Kiellandbu or the beautiful mountain lake Bondhusvatnet.

Glacier safari

A very special experience awaits you at the Folgefonna Glacier, where you can combine a boat trip across the fjord with a guided hike on the glistening glacier, the third largest in Norway. Here you can really feel the forces of nature around you as you hike over the frozen snow with views of mountains, fjords and valleys revealed by each turn of the hilly landscape. If you're feeling particularly adventurous, you can try your hand at ice climbing along the way.

All tours are tailored to the participants' fitness and preferences and are available for all age groups, although glacier hiking is only recommended from the age of 7.
