Steinsdalsfossen
A waterfall outside Norheimsund, about 50 m high, with a path passing behind it so you can stand behind the curtain of water; it is the most popular stop along the fjord road.
The waterfall lies beside Route 7 on the way from Bergen toward Hardanger, about 2 km from Norheimsund. From the parking lot, it takes about 5 minutes on stone steps to reach the rock-cave path behind the waterfall. Mist is heavy, so wear a waterproof jacket and protect your camera. Entry is free. There is a paid roadside parking lot, a souvenir shop and a café. It is about 1 hour 15 minutes' drive from Bergen, or you can take the Bergen–Norheimsund bus.
