Nærøyfjord is featured on UNESCO World Heritage List and there’s no better way to experience it than by kayaking.

      Nærøyfjord offers incredible views of cascading waterfalls, unique nature, and wildlife, as well as historic farms which have been clinging onto the mountains for centuries.

The trail begins in Tjoflot and winds its way nearly 1,000 m (3,280 ft) vertically from the car park through steep forest, before opening up and offering views of the surrounding fjords and mountains.

      The top offers a 360 panoramic view of Samlafjorden, Sørfjorden, Eidfjorden and Granvinsfjorden, as well as Norway’s third largest glacier: Folgefonna.
