Make photo stops at the waterfalls of Fossen Bratte and Steinsdalsfossen, and see Lake Skåsvatnet, known as the ‘Goldfish Lake’ for its colonies of goldfish. Learn how the fish were released here in 1914 and watch them in the waters.
Continue to Hardangerfjord and soak in the full scale of the mountain-framed inlet as you drive toward the upper end. Then, venture across the Hardangerfjord Bridge, one of the world’s longest suspension bridges, absorbing the incredible surrounding scenery.
On the other side, pass through the town of Eidfjord and stop in Øvre Eidfjord, a tiny village beautifully set beneath the Hardangervidda mountain plateau.
Visit the Hardangervidda Nature Centre (own expense), a cutting-edge museum dedicated to the region’s nature and wildlife.

Next up, head to a cozy restaurant specializing in authentic Norwegian cuisine. Enjoy lunch here (own expense) before continuing to Vøringfossen, Norway’s biggest waterfall. Enjoy the views of this precipitous fall, whose waters plunge 597 feet (182 meters) from the Hardangervidda plateau into a narrow valley.
Finally, take a different route back to Bergen, where your tour ends at the start point.
