What to expect?
Climb and boulder your way through Northern Europe's largest boulder field, hike to the region's largest waterfall, and experience Norwegian fjords, local culture, and history, all in one day!
After a scenic drive by the beautiful Frafjord, we will hike a short but steep climb to the breathtaking Månafossen (the region's largest and most powerful waterfall). After our hike, we will enjoy a visit and lunch stop at Byrkedalstunet. This historic dairy farm has been converted into a hotel and restaurant, features its very own candle factory, and has become one of the most important tourist destinations in the region.
There will be plenty of time to explore Bykedalstunet and learn about Norwegian culture and history. Afterward, we will drive into the UNESCO Geopark to Gloppedalsura, the site of a famous WWII battle, and take in the majestic cliffs as we via ferrata through the boulders - the ultimate natural escape room!
Note: While Via Ferrata requires novice climbing skills only, it does include some narrow passes that require a certain amount of agility, and may not be suitable for plus size guests.
