Hardangerfjord is one of Norway&#8217;s most famous &#8211; and just 1.5 hours away from the city. Start with a short hike to the top of Voringfossen waterfall to watch it cascade down the cliffs. Or spend an entire day exploring the four falls of the Husedalen Valley. For a slightly more bracing stroll, opt for a guided hike through the glaciers of Folgefonna National Park.<\/p>\n<p>While you&#8217;re here, it&#8217;s well worth spending a day in Voss, the district known as Norway&#8217;s adventure capital. Drive an hour or so from the comfort of your boutique hotel to dive headfirst into one of many adrenaline-fuelled activities &#8211; from paragliding to white water rafting. If you&#8217;d like to take it easier, hire a bike and cycle through the hills. Whatever your preferred pace, you won&#8217;t be short of things to do in this exciting town.<\/p>\n<h2>UNPACK YOUR SUITCASE<\/h2>\n<p>Dedicated to Bergen-born composer Edvard Greig, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slh.com\/hotels\/opus-xvi\">Opus XVI<\/a> hotel is as historic as it is stylish.

Now, it&#8217;s time to venture north for dramatic scenery on another scale. From the sleepy town of Alesund, hire a car to explore Geirangerfjord. This UNESCO-listed natural wonder is the stuff of Viking saga &#8211; and one that every traveller should tick off their hit-list. Tumbling waterfalls and virtually vertical cliffs are mirrored in the deep blue waters. But its spellbinding scenery means Geirangerfjord is no secret. As cruise ships dock at the main port of Geiranger, venture out onto the water, either by ferry or private boat. The best way to get to Geirangerfjord is via the Trollstigen &#8211; a rollercoaster of a road that snakes down deep-cut mountains.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_position=&#8221;default&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;21298&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;entrance&#8221; animation=&#8221;Fade In&#8221; hover_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; image_loading=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_mobile=&#8221;default&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_position=&#8221;default&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221;]For somewhere more off-the-beaten track, nearby Hjorundfjord seems to have kept itself a secret from the world.

But to make the most of the 10 days, we&#8217;d recommend flying between the two &#8211; then hiring cars when you arrive to explore the surrounding area.
