Geirangerfjord Helicopter Tour — UNESCO Fjord, Seven Sisters Waterfall

Geirangerfjord was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2005 for one reason — it is among the most spectacular fjords on the planet. From a private helicopter, you see the entire fjord in one breath: the deep emerald water, the Seven Sisters waterfall cascading 250m down the cliff face, the Bridal Veil opposite, and the Trollstigen mountain road snaking up a sheer wall.

What you see from the helicopter

Seven Sisters waterfall

Seven separate streams cascading 250m down sheer cliff into the fjord. From above, you see all seven at once — impossible from any boat.

Bridal Veil & Suitor

The "groom waterfall" opposite the seven sisters, named for its winding pattern resembling a bottle.

Trollstigen mountain road

11 sharp hairpin bends climbing 850m through the mountain. From above, an engineering marvel meets vertical drama.

Geiranger village & port

The picturesque village at the inner end of the fjord, often filled with cruise ships you can identify from above.
