Van adembenemende fjordlandschappen en spectaculaire watervallen tot een eindeloos bergplateau, de reis over Hardangervidda heeft het allemaal.
Noorse toeristische route
Hardangervidda
Ontdek de ‘Grand Canyon’ van Noorwegen
De Noorse toeristische route Hardangervidda is één van de 18 officiële Noorse toeristische routes.
De route loopt dwars over het grootste bergplateau van Noord-Europa, tussen het Hardangerfjord en Geilo. Onderweg kom je langs een van de populairste bezienswaardigheden van Noorwegen: de Vøringsfossen-waterval, omringd door een diep en indrukwekkend ravijn.
Een reis over Hardangervidda
Ben je benieuwd hoe het is om de wilde natuur te verkennen op een ongelofelijke schaal? Dan is het tijd voor de Noorse toeristische route Hardangervidda! De route strekt zich 67 kilometer uit tussen Eidfjord in Hardanger in het westen en Haugastøl bij Geilo in het oosten. Als je doorrijdt zonder te stoppen, ben je er in ruim een uur. Alleen mis je dan wel alle fantastische bezienswaardigheden onderweg!
Hardangervidda bereik je het makkelijkst vanuit Bergen in ongeveer 2,5 uur rijden. Je kunt ook vanuit Oslo, Stavanger of Kristiansand komen, maar reken dan op 4 tot 6 uur reistijd. Een andere optie is om te vliegen naar een van deze steden en vervolgens daar een auto huren op het vliegveld.
Je kunt vliegtickets boeken met Norwegian, Widerøe of SAS.
Verken eerst de prachtige Hardangerfjord-regio voordat je aan je bergavontuur begint (of deze afsluit) in het pittoreske dorpje Eidfjord.
Kajakken, zwemmen of een ontspannen fjordcruise: op dit idyllische plekje diep in het fjord kan het allemaal.
Neem de tijd voor rustige stranden en schilderachtige wandelpaden voor elk niveau. Geniet daarna van een heerlijke maaltijd of overnacht in het knusse, historische Eidfjord Gjestgiveri of Vøringfoss Hotel.
Trakteer jezelf op heerlijke zoete bolletjes bij de bakkerij van Vik Restaurant voordat je richting het bergplateau rijdt.

Een rit van twintig minuten ten oosten van het dorp Eidfjord brengt je naar Måbødalen. Neem een pauze bij de rustplaats bij de Måbø-brug, waar je op een van de bankjes kunt zitten midden in een adembenemend landschap.
De stenen boogbrug dateert maar liefst uit 1910!
Rijd nog tien minuten verder omhoog door het steile maar schilderachtige dal, met zijn unieke spiraaltunnels, en je wordt beloond met een spectaculair uitzicht op je volgende bestemming: de waterval Vøringsfossen.
Vøringsfossen is een van de beroemdste watervallen van Noorwegen met verschillende spectaculaire uitkijkplatforms. Van dichtbij heb je een adembenemend uitzicht op hoe het water 182 naar beneden stort in de diepe vallei.
Je kunt ook overnachten in het Fossli Hotel uit 1891, met uitzicht op de waterval. Er is een restaurant en café voor als je trek hebt voordat je weer verder rijdt.
Let op: De uitkijkplatforms zijn gesloten in de winter en de waterval kan dan gedeeltelijk of helemaal bevroren zijn.
Rijd je verder voorbij Vøringsfossen, dan word je al snel getrakteerd op een panoramisch uitzicht over het uitgestrekte bergplateau Hardangervidda.
Dit gebied is een paradijs voor wandelaars. Parkeer de auto, check in bij een huisje, vul je rugzak en ga op pad over een van de vele wandelpaden.
Rijd ongeveer 40 minuten verder de bergen in door een buitengewoon landschap en stop bij het Ørteren-meer om te ontspannen en alles in je op te nemen.
Er zijn twee opvallend vormgegeven rustplaatsen met uitzicht over het Ørteren-meer. Beide zijn ontworpen met minimale impact op de omgeving, geïnspireerd door bestaande natuurlijke elementen in het landschap.
Volg de weg ongeveer tien minuten naar het oosten tot je Haugastøl bereikt. Dit is het eindpunt van de route, maar je kunt net zo goed hier beginnen en naar het westen rijden.
Overnacht of geniet van een maaltijd bij Toeristencentrum Haugastøl of trek de natuur in voor een hike.
Haugastøl is ook het startpunt van de beroemde Rallarvegen: een 82 kilometer lang fietspad dat helemaal naar Flåm loopt, door prachtige landschappen en hooggelegen bergbestemmingen zoals Finse, Hallingskeid en Myrdal.
De volledige route is meestal begin juli sneeuw- en ijsvrij. Het fietsseizoen loopt tot ongeveer eind september.

Buy hiking maps at the local tourist offices, or order a map online, or by e-mailing the Norwegian Trekking Association at [email protected]. This is a hike in the Norwegian high mountains. What you need to know before hiking in Hardangervidda: In Hardangervidda you are in the wilderness. There are no shops, doctors, restaurants, ATMs, or telephones. You can be several days hiking from the nearest road. You can buy provisions and stay overnight the lodges operated by the Norwegian Trekking Association. You can pay by leaving a cash payment, or by filling out a payment form. In the staffed lodges you can pay by debit or credit card. Read more here. Hiking is possible when Hardangervidda is snow free, normally in July and August. Winter can come quickly and without mercy, even early in September. Do not put yourself and others at risk by hiking outside the season, or by not being properly prepared and equipped. Every year there are tourists who are rescued by local volunteers. Bring warm, water and wind proof clothing. The weather in the high mountains is different from the weather down by the fjords. Be prepared for low temperatures, also in the summer. Weather can change rapidly and unpredictably. It can be good weather down by the fjord, and be foggy and cold in the mountains. Always have a topographical map (in at least scale 1:100.000) and compass (and even a GPS). In Norway, even if a trail is marked, it can be difficult to see it, and a map and compass enables you to orientate. Be especially aware of fog in Hardangervidda, which is not a problem in lower areas. Buy hiking maps at the local tourist offices, or order a map online, or by e-mailing the Norwegian Trekking Association at [email protected] can also print you own topographical map (for free) in scale 1:25.000 or 1:50.000 by using an online map tool. The quality of hiking maps for sale is much better, as the paper quality is weather proof. The maps for sale contain more relevant information about marked trails, estimated time for the marked trails, mountain lodges etc. If you travel on a low budget and do not want to spend money on appropriate clothing and map and compass, it is best to take day hikes, see list of all our beautiful hikes here. Distances in the wilderness are given in time, NOT kilometers. Norwegian standard walking time is a fast pace. You will find this information given in hours in tour descriptions and in hiking maps. You need to add time to the standard walking time, and also add time for breaks. Which means that an 6 hour hike is really a full day's hike. An 8 hour hike is long day's hike. Be aware of height differences; 4 km in even landscape is very different in 4 km with an ascent of 1,000 meters! Downhill is just as demanding as uphill, especially if you carry a heavy back pack. If you plan to hike several days in Hardangervidda, you need to be physically fit for it. You have no access to electricity in the mountains; bring enough batteries. You use more power in cold weather. You do NOT have mobile coverage in the mountains, and NO access to internet. If something happens, you will most likely not be able to phone for help. It can be several days hiking to the nearest road. As a rule you can drink water in Hardangervidda, but there is no guarantee that it is safe. Be especially aware of the water in areas where many people go (like the trail to Trolltunga), and in smaller ponds. Take all waste with you. Nature in the high mountains is extremely vulnerable. Do not disturb animals and birds, do not destroy vegetation. From 15th April to 15th September making fire near or in woodlands is prohibited. If you fish in lakes and streams and rivers you need a permit from the land owner. Buy fishing permits online or at the lodges in Hardangervidda, or at the local tourist offices.

Goed om te weten voordat je vertrekt
Door de hoogte van het gebied en het onvoorspelbare weer is de beste tijd voor deze rit tussen april en oktober.
De weg blijft 's winters open, maar vaak rijdt het verkeer met een konvooisysteem en zijn er tijdelijke afsluitingen. Grazende rendieren kunnen ook voor wegafsluitingen zorgen. Vermijd deze route in de wintermaanden tenzij je ervaren bent met rijden onder moeilijke winterse omstandigheden.
De uitkijkplatforms en het gebied rond de Vøringsfossen-waterval zijn 's winters gesloten vanwege gladheid door sneeuw en ijs.
Informatie voor fietsers: Een goed natuurlijk vertrekpunt is Haugastøl. Let op: de weg is 's zomers vaak druk en het weer kan hier snel omslaan. Door verschillende steenlawines is de oude weg afgesloten en de weg door de Måbødalen-vallei is vanwege meerdere tunnels gesloten voor fietsers. Wil je Eidfjord bereiken en verder richting het westen? Neem dan de bus vanaf het plateau.
