Vøringsfossen - Måbødalen

Enjoy the view of one of the most impressive waterfalls in Norway that pours out from the Hardangervidda mountain plateau and curbs itself down the narrow and wild Måbødalen valley.

The Vøringsfossen waterfall is one of the best-known waterfalls in Norway, which springs from the river Bjoreia west on the Hardangervidda Plateau. Massive amounts of water plunge 182 meters straight down through the Måbødalen valley, a narrow and wild valley that winds down to the softer and greener areas of Hardanger. The amount of water in the river is regulated in connection with power development during the summer season.
