Norway Kayaking the Western Fjords

Our Western Fjords Norway kayaking trip covers 50 miles of the most dazzlingly beautiful fjords in the world. The journey begins at the charming art nouveau styled town of Ålesund at the entrance of Storfjord. We paddle through the peaks of Sunnmøre Alps on the waters of Norddalsfjord, Tafjord, Sunnylvsfjord and finish the majestic waterway of Geirangerfjord. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Geirangerfjord is the most photographed fjord in Norway.

This adventure is an expedition-style camping trip through the heart of Norway’s western fjords; an area of postcard-perfect landscapes, with snow-capped mountains, high granite walls, waterfalls, mountain farms, wildflowers and charming villages. Come with us while we enjoy the long sunlit Scandinavian summer days and discover the Norway’s unique blend of scenery, culture and adventure.

A National Geographic commissioned panel of experts in sustainable tourism and destination stewardship again selected Norway’s Western Fjords the world’s Best Destination with even higher marks than before. — National Geographic Traveler Nov/Dec 2006 and Nov/Dec 2009

“To float in Geirangerfjord is an astonishing, complete natural experience—steep, lush and rocky canyon walls, endless waterfalls.”

— National Geographic Panel Member
