Experience the adrenaline rush as you speed along steep mountain slopes and into roadless villages on an unforgettable RIB tour in Hardanger with Hardanger Adventure.
The journey from Norheimsund takes you out on the Hardangerfjord, passing the island of Kvamsøy before entering the Fyksesund fjord arm – the narrowest section of the Hardangerfjord. Fyksesund is the only fjord arm in Hardangerfjord without road access to its inner reaches. The last 5 km of the 10.5 km fjord is flanked by steep mountainsides, leading to the village of Botnen – a geographically secluded community with a rich history of cultural connection to the outside world.
During this adrenaline-filled RIB tour, the guide will make several stops so you can fully immerse yourself in the unique fjord landscape. You'll hear fascinating stories about the fjord and the people who once lived along its shores. Fyksesund is also home to countless waterfalls, and you'll get close enough to feel the refreshing mist. Be sure to keep your camera handy to capture this unforgettable experience!
Join a RIB tour and see Hardanger like never before. This adventure will create memories that last a lifetime. So why not bring your family or friends and explore some of Norway's most stunning nature together?
