Then board a first-class electric vessel and enjoy a stunning 'silent' cruise along the Nærøyfjord to Flåm, a small town located at the end of the fjord. The fjord itself is a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site, due to the exceptional natural beauty stemming from the narrow and steep-sided crystalline rock walls that rise up 1,400 metres from the Norwegian Sea and extend 500 metres below sea level. It is amongst the world’s longest and deepest fjords and has many waterfalls, free-flowing rivers, forests, and glaciers.

Get your camera out for a visit to Stegastein, a viewing platform that juts out 30 metres from the mountainside, 650 metres above Aurlandsfjord. It offers an unparalleled panorama of the fjord, mountains and surrounding landscape.

Relax by the fjord for the rest of the day or enjoy waterfall walls, optional kayaking or meander around the small village.

This morning, board the tourist train at Flåm Station, where you’ll take a stunning train ride to Myrdal. Travelling on the Flåmsbana, be sure not to miss any of the amazing vistas on offer.

A total feast for the eyes!
