Vøringsfossen Waterfall in Norway

Vøringsfossen Waterfall

You can find Vøringsfossen in the municipality of Eidfjord if you drive along the scenic Highway 7 as it crosses the Hardanger plateau before going down to the Hardanger Fjord. As with waterfalls of this magnitude, its surrounded by hazards and dangers. Several fatalities have been recorded with ever-growing tourists becoming bold by exploring unsecured areas just to get a selfie. Let that not sway you away, however, as this waterfall is simply magnificent to behold. It's freakin' awesome to take photos of too and by far one of the most photogenic waterfalls in Scandinavia.

You can see two waterfalls, the other is called Tyssvikjofossen, converging into a river in the canyon below. The fall drops a mere 183 meters, not the tallest by a long shot, but grand to behold regardless. There are hiking trails in and around the waterfalls but you don't need to hike to get the best view. There's actually a parking lot at the very top of the waterfall with a chalet around the corner.
