| Naeroydalen from Gudvangen |
Gudvangen is a small port on the Naeroyfjord, which makes an excellent starting point for the journey to Myrdal on the Flamsbana. Hidden in the deep shadows of the extremely narrow Naeroydalen, it doesn't get much sunshine with the high mountains on both sides. But it's a lovely place with fantastic scenery, the waterfalls rumbling down the mountainsides and the lush green of the meadows in the middle. Wherever you go, the mountains are so close they seem to be hanging over you, too steep to climb but absolutely gorgeous. We have just re-visited Gudvangen, with more sightseeing of the area and another boat trip on the Naeroyfjord, so you can find some new tips. Pictures from this year's boat trip on the fjord with low clouds hanging over the water have been added to my new Flam page. |

LoriPori Mon Nov 2, 2009 11:42 UTC The Kjosfossen Waterfalls are indeed spectacular as are the fjords and mountains. Staying in charming little cabins seem the way to go in Norway. | Bwana_Brown Wed Sep 19, 2007 13:51 UTC A really spectacular part of your travels in Norway! Your drive to Stalheimskleiv sounds like something out of this world, and what a view from up there! I've almost made it through Norway with you, looking forward to Ireland now! | Ekaterinburg Thu May 3, 2007 15:32 UTC Absolutely beautiful Eva.Don't know yet if Ican get to Norway this summer but I'm still doing the research :)) | matcrazy1 Thu Nov 9, 2006 21:31 UTC Beautiful pictures of outstanding sceneries! |
