Deep inside the innermost part of the Hardangerfjord, almost at the point where you cannot get any further, is Quality Hotel & Resort Vøringfoss (www.voringfoss.no), the “white pearl” of Eidfjord.
Apart from having simply spectacular views, you have the majestic Hardangervidda right on your doorstep, and just around the corner is Norway’s most famous waterfall Vøringsfossen. You can also visit the famous Kjeåsen mountain farm, situated as an eagle’s nest on the steep mountainside - if you fancy driving through a black tunnel or even walk the spectacular path as the farmers did in the past. The location offers fantastic opportunities, especially since we work with the extreme activity company FlatEarth (www.flatearth.no).
You do not have to enjoy extreme activities to stay at the hotel. You can simply relax on the veranda overlooking the Fjord and enjoy a bite to eat from one of the restaurants, offering fresh and locally sourced food. And why not visit its own art gallery afterwards, displaying the work of the famous Norweigan National Romanticism painter Nils Bergslien.
The popularity of the whole Hardanger area is increasing year by year, with visitors from all over the world. So perhaps it is time to skip the crowded beach this year and steer your holiday northeast, especially since it is less than two hours to fly. Like the Hardanger locals say: “time to explore”.
