Geiranger is a small port village and a cruise tourist destination in Sunnmore ((Norway's west coast). It is located in Stranda, at the head of Geirangerfjorden - a branch of the big Storfjorden. The nearest city is  Alesund (approx 110 km / 65 mi). The distance between Geiranger and the other tender port Hellesylt (Sunnylvsfjord) is approx 22 km (14 mi).

Geiranger has been named Scandinavia's best travel destination by Lonely Planet. Since 2005, the scenic area of Geirangerfjord has been listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site. The waterfall Seven Sisters (height 250 m / 820 ft) is west of Geiranger. The Norwegian County Road 63 passes through this small village (population under 500).

The fjord Geiranger is under constant threat from Akerneset mountain that could erode into it. The collapse could generate a tsunami which could destroy this picturesque village.

Geiranger is a day in transit from Alesund , Flam or Bergen . The cruising season is early Spring through late Autumn. In 2015, the port was visited by cruise ships 179 times, with maiden calls from NCL Norwegian and Disney .

Most cruise ships to Geiranger are docked in the bay and their passengers are transported to the pier via the ship's tender boats. To handle the increasing cruise shipping traffic, the port installed an innovative floating pier in addition to the deepwater quay.

Since 2014, the new SeaWalk Pier (on the photo above) provides easier passenger disembarkation / embarkation without the need of tendering. It allows passengers to walk directly into the village. However, as the new pier allows docking of only 1 vessel, the other cruise ship's passengers will have to be tendered ashore. Aslo, as the SeaWalk Pier requires pre-renting by the cruise ship company, not all companies use its service.

To finance the floating pier project, the port introduced a mandatory docking fee. The decision was explained In an official statement, saying that ship docking is environmentally friendly because when docked the vessels have a lesser environmental impact in terms of discharges or bad emissions in comparison to vessels anchored in the fjord.

Cruisetours allow from Geiranger to be visited (via bus) the Dalsnibba Mountain, Trollstigen and also Alesund. From Vigra-Alesund Airport can be accessed domestic ports ( Bergen , Oslo , Stavanger , Trondheim , Kristiansund , Floro ) as well as Stockholm Sweden , Amsterdam Holland , Gdansk Poland , Kaunas Lithuania.

Welcome to Geirangerfjord cruise port, a crown jewel of Norwegian fjords nestled in the Sunnmøre region in the western part of Norway. The spectacular Geiranger Fjord has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and was named by Lonely Planet as the best travel destination in Scandinavia.

Located in the Stranda Municipality, Geirangerfjord is a branch of the Storfjorden (Great Fjord). Sailing into the fjord is an unforgettable sight that you cannot compare with any other! I visited this stunning place years ago and I still remember how amazing it was when we sailed in.

In this Geirangerfjord travel guide, I give you an overview of Geiranger cruise port along with 7 best things to do on a cruise to this breathtaking cruise destination.

Geirangerfjord Cruise Port

1. geiranger cruise terminal.

The port of Geirangerfjord is located in the small village of Geiranger, tucked between towering mountains and breathtaking scenery. A small Geiranger Cruise Terminal can accommodate one cruise ship at a time, however, the majority of large cruise ships tender and transfer cruise passengers to the pier via tender boats.

This cruise terminal is adjacent to Geiranger Ferry Terminal, from where you can embark on fjord cruises that depart approximately every hour. Geiranger Tourist Information is available on-site, providing visitors with useful information on things to do in the area, taxis, e-bike rentals, fjord cruise timetables, etc.

Right next to the pier is a large parking for tour buses ready to take you on shore excursions to stunning viewpoints, waterfalls, and other points of interest.

Geiranger Hop on Hop off sightseeing bus departs every hour from the Geiranger cruise ship terminal to the iconic Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint. The circuit takes about 50 minutes and includes four stops.

Within a short walk from the pier, you’ll also find a restaurant, a cafe, a hotel, a small museum, and a grocery store.

Public buses are available, but this option is not recommended to cruise passengers as they do not run frequently.

2. Hellesylt Cruise Terminal

Cruise ships may also dock in Hellesylt cruise port , another small port located in Geirangerfjord, around 20 km/12 miles west of Geiranger village (the journey between the two cruise ports takes 1 hour 30 minutes because one part of it includes a ferry ride).

Hellesylt features facilities such as a tourist information kiosk, a few souvenir shops, cafes, restaurants, and hotels/campsites. Public transportation, a church and a hospital are close to the pier.

Cruise ships may dock or tender. It often happens that only cruise passengers who booked shore excursions are allowed to get off the ship, only to join tour buses waiting to transfer them to the nearby attractions.

Other passengers continue to Geiranger port where the ship can stay longer. You will get this information from your cruise line beforehand.

7 Best Things To Do In Geirangerfjord Cruise Port

1. geirangerfjord sightseeing cruise.

While the Geirangerfjord is undoubtedly stunning from the land, experiencing it from the water offers a unique perspective that simply can’t be matched! Your cruise ship may be offering one, but there are also local tour operators offering fjord cruises.

These cruises usually depart from Geiranger dock and include a couple of hours sailing along the magnificent fjord, allowing you to admire the attractions and wildlife up close.

You will have the opportunity to admire the spectacular Seven Sisters Waterfall , the 410-meter (1,350 ft)-high waterfall that consists of seven separate streams that look absolutely breathtaking from the water!

Other scenic locations include the Brudesløret (Bridal Veil) and Friaren waterfalls , and Devil’s Crevice, a narrow and dramatic geological formation showcasing the forces of nature with its deep and steep fissure carved into the rugged landscape.

From the port, it’s often just a short walk to the designated pier where the sightseeing cruises depart. You can opt for a catamaran sightseeing cruise, a fjord safari on a high-speed RIB vessel, or a relaxing kayaking adventure.

If you prefer to explore independently, it’s possible to rent kayaks from local operators and embark on a self-guided paddling adventure. While this option requires a bit more planning and coordination, it offers the flexibility to customize your itinerary and explore at your own pace.

For those staying here for more days (or if you are staying overnight at port), full-day cruises to the famous Alesund located around 108 km/67 miles to the northwest are also available.

2. The Seven Sisters Waterfall

The Seven Sisters Waterfall is a breathtaking natural spectacle nestled within a short driving distance from the port. The 410-meter (1,350 ft)-high waterfall consists of seven distinct cascades flowing down the steep mountainside, with an average free fall of around 250 meters (820 ft).

Legend has it that the “Seven Sisters” remained unmarried, while the waterfall on the opposite side of the fjord earned the name “The Suitor” due to numerous unsuccessful attempts to court the sisters.

From the port in Geiranger, it’s possible to reach the Seven Sisters Waterfall on a fjord cruise, but also by a combination of driving and hiking. Both cruise lines and independent tour operators offer organized excursions to the viewpoints from where you can admire the Seven Sisters Waterfall.

3. Eagle’s Bend Viewpoint

Take a spectacular ride up the Eagle Road to see one of Geiranger’s most mesmerizing views – the Eagle’s Bend. This viewpoint, located high above the Geirangerfjord, provides jaw-dropping panoramic views that will take your breath away!

Also known as Ørnesvingen Viewpoint, this scenic overlook is located along Geiranger-Trollstigen National Tourist Route around a 15-minute drive from the port of Geirangerfjord. You can visit it by car or on a guided bus tour.

4. Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint

Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint is an iconic observation point located only a 10-minute drive from the cruise port, offering unparalleled views of the majestic Geirangerfjord and its surrounding landscape. You can either drive, take a Hop on Hop off bus, or hike up for about an hour to reach the viewpoint.

Perched atop steep cliffs, the viewpoint provides a breathtaking panorama of the deep blue fjord waters, dramatic mountainsides, and cascading waterfalls. This is also the best spot to observe the toy-sized cruise ships. A small parking is available on-site.

Explore Flydalsjuvet Viewpoint tours

5. Dalsnibba Mountain

Only 20 km/12.5 miles (a 40-minute drive) southeast of Geiranger cruise port is Dalsnibba Mountain, a towering peak that offers panoramic views of the Geirangerfjord and its surrounding landscape.

At an elevation of over 1,476 meters above sea level, Dalsnibba Viewpoint (Dalsnibba Utsiktspunkt) offers visitors a breathtaking vistas of the iconic Geirangerfjord, lush valleys, and snow-capped peaks in the distance.

Dalsnibba Mountain is best visited on a guided shore excursion, but you can also reach it by bus or car via the iconic Eagle Road (Ørnevegen). A cafe and a souvenir shop are available on-site.

6. Geiranger Church

Step back in time and discover the historic Geiranger Church, a wooden church rich in history located within a 15-minute walk from the cruise ship terminal. Built in the traditional Norwegian stave church style, the church originally dates from the 15th century and is surrounded by a small cemetery.

As you enter the Geiranger Church, you’ll be impressed by its rustic charm and stunning hilltop location overlooking breathtaking mountains and waterfalls. Keep in mind that the church may be closed sometimes, but both the exterior view of the church and its location make it worth coming!

7. Hiking Adventure

If you prefer a more adventurous and adrenaline-pumped holiday, a hiking trip will provide you with an ideal opportunity to immerse yourself in the pristine wilderness that surrounds the fjord.

Many guided hiking tours are available, led by knowledgeable local guides who can provide insight into the area’s flora, wildlife, and cultural history.

These tours typically depart from designated meeting points near the port and transport participants to the starting point of the hike. Alternatively, for those who prefer to explore independently, there are numerous hiking trails accessible from the village of Geiranger.

From gentle paths that meander along the fjord’s edge to challenging climbs that lead to panoramic viewpoints, there’s a trail for every skill level and interest!

Discover the famous Geirangerfjord

The UNESCO listed fjord landscape

When you see it, there is no wonder why the Geirangerfjord is on UNESCO’s World Heritage list. The fjord is surrounded by a pristine landscape of steep, tall mountains and cascading waterfalls such as the Knivsflå waterfalls which is known as the Seven Sisters and the the Suitor. The small farms you can see clinging to the mountain sides, seems almost uninhabitable. They have stayed more or less untouched in modern times and are only accessible by boat and foot.

Together with the Nærøyfjord, the Geirangerfjord has been on the World Heritage List since 2005 as West Norwegian Fjords. According to UNESCO, the two fjords are considered as archetypical fjord landscapes and among the most scenically outstanding anywhere.  

Explore Geiranger

While a cruise on the fjord is the main highlight, take the time to explore the charming village when you are in Geiranger. In the main street you find small individual stores selling locally produced items, such as mouth-watering chocolate. Fossestien is a path following the impressive waterfall from the fjord up to Hotel Union Geiranger. At the top you can pay a visit to the Norwegian Fjord Centre to learn more about the geology of the landscape and culture by the fjord.

There are several viewpoints in the hills above the town centre with spectacular views towards the fjord. If you do not have your own car to take you there, opt to hire an electrical bicycle or eMobility car from the town centre. Read more about what to do in Geiranger here.

The approach to Geiranger is stunning. Geirangerfjord is renowned as the most beautiful in Norway. You will tendered to a pier downtown.

Geiranger and Hellesylt are tandem ports: At either one of the ports you will stop only for a few hours to tender passengers who book the overland tour to the other port, where your ship will stay longer. On occasion cruise ships also allow passengers to get off, just to stroll around for an hour or so.

The new SeaWalk pier which is now in operation, provides easy shore access and reduce time-consuming tender operations, allowing cruise passengers to walk directly from the ship to Geiranger town center. Normally when using tenderboats this used to be a three hour affair. Now in less than an hour all passengers can be ashore. The pier can handle only one ship, so tenders may be used. Renting the Seawalk pier is expensive for the cruise lines, so not all lines will use this service.

Sightseeing:

Geiranger is the highlight among Norway's fjord district's pearls of natural beauty. Majestic, snow-covered mountain peaks, beautiful and wild waterfalls, lush, green vegetation and the deep blue waters of the fjord - yes, it really is like something taken from a fairy tale.

Geiranger itself is not much of a village - a camping site, a few hotels, some attractive souvenir shops and some nice walks along the coast line.

Tours Excursions Transportation:

Hop on/off buses are available when cruise ships are in port. You will be able to enjoy a 80 minute tour, with Pre-recorded commentary in 8 different languages, so you can learn about Geiranger while enjoying all the different sights. You will also have 15 minutes photo stops at both viewpoints.

Geiranger and some of these other fjord port villages are very small, small. Unlike Bergen, Oslo, Copenhagen, etc., they don't have the wider range of transportation options, nor a handy variety of attractions right there. Mt. Dalsnibba (nearly a mile up) is a big, big distance from sea level and this tendering location. In this area, getting "up country" can be important to see a wider range of scenic beauty. Ship tours are not perfect, but they can get you "around" and solve many of your logistical needs. Things are not cheap in Norway, also, whether for private tours and/or by a ship excursion.

To do Mt.Dalsnibba on your own, you'd either need to book a private excursion (there are some listed at the tourist office ) or rent a car. The road will probably be open by early July, as it can be snowing well into June. It is also recommended to wait until the very day you're in Geiranger because if it's raining you won't see much anyway.

The public bus route runs 3 times per day from Geiranger to Dalsnibba in the period 21.06.-31.08. This is a beautiful bus tour with photo stops. The round trip Geiranger-Dalsnibba takes about 2 hours.

Walking instructions

If you want to see Geiranger from the finest view-points, you can drive up to Ørnesvingen, Flydalsjuvet or Dalsnibba (toll road). Or you can walk up to Vesteråsfjellet or Skageflå.

The Tourist Office offers a wide variety of tours and rentals.

As the weather in Norway can be very unpredictable, make sure to check the cancellation policies in case of inclement weather. It is no fun doing an excursion in the clouds.

Taxis are few and very expensive (about 100 Euro an hour).

It pays to compare your cruise line tours here .

Nearby Places:

Shopping and food.

Basically a few souvenir shops.

Currency Converter

Communication:

One free (10 minutes) internet station at the tourist office. Some cafes offer WiFi with the purchase of a consumption. And depending on your provider, there is free WIFI on and around the pier and pier shops. Norway is considered part of the European Union as far a data roaming is considered!

Opening Hours and Holidays:

All stores and restaurants are open when a cruise ship is in town.

Geiranger: tourist information

The Geirangerfjord is one of the region's smallest fjords, but also one of its most breathtaking. A convoluted branch of the Storfjord, it cuts well inland, marked by impressive waterfalls and with a village at either end of its snake-like profile. You can reach the Geirangerfjord by bus or car from the north or south, but you'd do best to approach from the north if you can. From this direction, the journey begins in Andalsnes from where Highway 63 wriggles over the mountains via the wonderful Trollstigen Highway , which climbs through some of the country's highest peaks before sweeping down to the Tafjord. From here, it's a quick ferry ride and dramatic journey along the Orneveien, the Eagle's Highway, for a first view of the Geirangerfjord and the village that bears its name glinting in the distance. There is little as stunning anywhere in western Norway, and from mid-June to August it can all be seen on a twice-daily bus following this so-called "Golden Route".

Ferry cruise in the Geirangerfjord from Hellesylt

Hellesylt Fergekai, Stranda

• View in Map

Adapted for disabled

Take the ferry from Geiranger to Hellesylt during winter time.

The ferry cruise from Hellesylt to Geiranger takes 1 hour and 15 minutes, and while cruising the fjord you can see beautiful waterfalls and small farms in the steep mountain sides.

In the winter the atmorphere will be totally different from summertime which has the green colours in the mountain farms. Less people travel in this time of the year, but absolutely worth the trip!
