Geiranger nestles in a small valley at the inland tip of Geirangerfjord, which is unabashedly called "the most beautiful fjord in the world." The scenery is absolutely stunning in every direction, so it's no wonder that the first cruise ship arrived here in 1869. Snow-mantled mountains rise majestically from the glacier-carved fjord. The Seven Sisters waterfalls burst forth from the cliffs and thunder into the deep, serene water. Emerald-green forests blanket the hillsides. If you are feeling ambitious, you might follow one of the many nature trails out of Geiranger, or simply take in the magnificent views as you meander through the storybook streets.
