Seven Sisters waterfall

Seven separate streams form this 410-meter waterfall, creating parallel white water cascades that flow directly into the Geirangerfjord from steep mountain cliffs.

The waterfall stands near Knivsflå, a mountain farm from the 1600s that residents accessed via steep paths along the fjord's vertical walls.

Norwegian folklore tells of seven unmarried sisters dancing down the mountain while a suitor watches from another waterfall across the fjord.

Fjord cruise boats from Geiranger provide the best viewing opportunities between May and July when melting snow increases the water flow.

The waterfall forms part of the Geirangerfjord UNESCO World Heritage site, with each stream falling an average of 250 meters into the fjord below.
