Hikes in Voss 

The mountains in the Voss region are great for both short and long hikes. Many of the hikes offer panoramic views of glaciers, fjords, mountain ranges, and lakes. Mount Lønahorgi is a classic hike, and at the top, you get a stunning view over of Voss! The easiest route starts from the top station of the gondola. There are several hikes to choose from, from the gondola. If you want to see something spectacular but don’t have much time, we recommend Bordalsgjelet, a gorge that has been formed throughout time, just 45 minutes from the town center.

If you're not familiar with the mountains, we recommend joining a guided tour. How about a trip to Breiskrednosi overlooking the UNESCO world heritage site Nærøyfjorden, with Wild Voss?

The hiking season in Voss usually starts at the end of June and lasts until the end of October - depending on the amount of snow in the mountains.

Conditions in the mountains can change quickly, so it's important to be well-prepared. Don't embark on a long hike without enough experience, and respect the weather forecast. Bring extra clothes, food and drink, and first aid equipment. And remember - there's no shame in turning back
