Two enchanting villages at the fork at the end of Storfjord. Once northern postal ports, these places are now among Norway’s favorite cruise ports due to the difficulties of overland transportation, with an annual average of 180 ship visits. We begin our tour by greeting Hellesylt Waterfall... First described as the northern postal route, now a tourism center. We first go to a viewpoint where we can see the Hellesylt fjord and take photos of it, then continue on our way. Our first stop is the Stone of the Pregnant Woman and the stone bridge dating back to the 1800s. Next, we visit Hornindal Lake, the deepest lake in Europe, and take a break there. After setting off again, our next stop is Stryn, one of the liveliest towns in the region. In Stryn, where the royal family especially comes for fishing, after seeing the stone bridge, free time will be given for shopping and coffee/lunch. After a break at the foot of Lake Djupvatnet, you will be mesmerized by the view from the terrace of Dalsnibba Mountain at an altitude of 1,476 meters, weather permitting.

Afterwards, we plan to spend about 2.5 hours on a boat trip in Lysefjord (Light Fjord), which stretches 42 km. One of the most beautiful and unique fjords in Norway, its most striking point is the monolithic granite rock called Pulpit Rock, 600 m above sea level. Although the large crack visible from three sides of the rock gives the impression that it could collapse into the sea at any moment, this natural event will most likely require thousands of more years to occur.
