Introduction

The Suitor Falls (Friaren) lies in the Geirangerfjord, facing the famous Seven Sisters Waterfall across the water, and is another eye-catching waterfall in the fjord. Uniquely shaped, its water forks and curves as it plunges down the cliff, which locals vividly liken to the silhouette of a wine bottle. According to a romantic folk tale, the Suitor Falls symbolizes a suitor courting the Seven Sisters across the water; spurned time and again, he drowned his sorrows in drink — hence the name — adding a witty, touching love story to the fjord's natural scenery. Cruising the fjord, you can take in both the Seven Sisters and the Suitor, echoing each other from afar. Listening to this legend with a light heart and admiring this distinctive waterfall is a delightful, charming touch to any Geirangerfjord trip.
