We’re headed to Norway in August and I’m debating if Geiranger is worth the trouble considering how touristy and crowded it is. I mean there are great scenic overlooks and fjords everywhere, so, is this one really worth the trouble?
The skywalk and surrounding viewpoints are nice and not that crowded. The middle of town is only worthwhile if you would like to walk along the waterfall walk, which will only take 30 min. I wouldn't stay there overnight again and just stay nearby for half the cost.... The kayaking is amazing though if you have the time to spare and the energy :-)
Was there last week. There are other fjords but this is the mother of them all. You have to go. If you are driving out, take the car ferry to Hjellskyt (spelling off ). Get to Lovaten and Olden for the lakes and glaciers there. They are near the town of Stryn, about 1.5 hrs from Geiranger.

Lived in Geiranger for 3 years. Your video is so beautifully put together and made me definetely emotional ❤
What an amazing place to live! I hope to go back again one day :-)
Was there last week, not too many people but what views and hiking !
Wish I got the chance to do some of the hikes. Hopefully going back one day :-)
Wow amazing place my friend 🥰🥰🥰

Greetings from Pacific
Agreed! Amazing place to visit, and some of the surrounding towns are less busy but equally beautiful!

I’m here now. Definitely worth the overnight stay. We’re staying two nights to do some kayaking, a cruise, some hikes and just hang out.

My parents went there in 1972 from their picture slides definitely different
Has a very industrialised feel at the waterfront with a three ships a day pouring people into the town....
when was the video taken?
All footage was taken in July. Weather was up and down at this time of year but got lucky on this day :-)
First syllable is pronounced “guy.”
Thanks for letting me know… the audio on Google translate may have led me astray :-)
You’re welcome. We were saying it wrong the entire time we were there until one of the locals told us.
