Introduction

The Seven Sisters Waterfall is the most famous waterfall of the Geirangerfjord and a landmark of this World Heritage fjord. The falls consist of seven streams plunging side by side down a sheer cliff over 200 meters high, like seven graceful maidens dancing shoulder to shoulder, elegant and lively, hence the name. In summer, when snowmelt swells the water, all seven streams leap together in an especially spectacular display. The fjord cruise steers close to the falls so passengers can look up at them from nearby. The romantic legend of the Seven Sisters and the Suitor Falls across the water adds a touching color to this natural wonder. Admiring up close the magnificent Seven Sisters plunging down in mist and spray is a classic, not-to-be-missed moment of any Geirangerfjord cruise — truly admirable.
