Itinerary description
|
Ascent to the Geiranger viewpoint (language of the Nordfjord fjord, Norway).
Considered a World Heritage Site, it is one of Norway's tourist attractions. This is one of the routes that, if you don't have much time, allow you to see the fjord. The route is simple, although the ground in some areas is not well trodden. Red V-shaped markings are followed. On this route we can go to another viewpoint.

Maybe this is an “easy” kid friendly trail if you are a member of the special forces and your kids are Olympians in training!
It’s not hard but it’s not easy and unless your kids are somewhat experienced hikers and not too young I wouldn’t take them on this trail when a fall can result in a plunge of hundreds of feet into the Geinrangerfjord. But the views will mollify the grumpiest of critics (they sure did me!). My God! What a spectacular panoramic view of the fjord!
Just be careful, don’t slip and gird your loins for some steep climb.
Thanks for your comment cyiannou. So sorry if you feel unconfortable with the trail, but when I did this path it seemed in good state. It is very possible that the way become more hard, mainly for kids (the weather there is very hard).
Enjoy jour trip!
NOTE: I'll change the technical difficulty to "moderate", but notice that in the description I clearly specified that "aunque el piso en algunas zonas no está bien pisado" ("although the path in some areas is not in good state", in english). Furthermore, the technical difficutlies regards to specific technic diffcicults, not to physical difficulties whom can have (kids or adults).
