In 2005, the area in and around the Geirangerfjord was added to the UNESCO
World Heritage List. What most people do not know is that the area goes much
further than just Geiranger and out the Geirangerfjord.
6 settlements have parts of the world heritage within their borders.
The settlements are Geiranger, Hellesylt, Eidsdal, Norddal, Fjørå and
Tafjord.
Within the boundaries of the World Heritage we have 3 world heritage fjords
and all 3 are incredibly spectacular fjords.
The fjords are Geirangerfjorden, Synnylvsfjorden and Tafjorden.
Geirangerfjorden and Synnylvsfjorden are slightly known fjords but
Tafjorden is the unknown world heritage fjord we have to offer when you take
the trip to our area
