Storseterfossen

Storsæterfossen

A waterfall above the village of Geiranger where you can walk behind the falling water. The roughly 1.5-hour round-trip hike is the village's most popular short trek.

Storseterfossen is located on the mountainside southeast of Geiranger village. The trail leads from Vesteråsfjellet farm or the village, climbing through forest and meadows for about 45 minutes. At the end, a path along the rock face lets you walk behind the waterfall's curtain and feel the spray. Along the way you can look down over Geirangerfjord. The round trip takes about 1.5–2 hours. It is moderately difficult, and some sections are slippery and steep, so wear non-slip shoes. It is free, and it is a good way to avoid the crowds in the village during cruise season.
