15 Zipline & Via Ferrata Days in Norway Worth Booking

1.Zipline Park Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 328 reviews · 30 minutes - 1.5 hours · from $78Our pick

Choose four ziplines for a brisk 30-minute outing, or add a self-guided via ferrata with four Nepalese bridges and four double ziplines. You’ll cross the Geiranger River, pass through forest, and finish above the Dynamite Waterfall. Staff explain the equipment in English or Norwegian, but the climbing course is largely unguided.

“I did the zipline experience (no via ferrata) although It looked like it would be an amazing experience. The zipline experience itself was very good. Getting from the cruise port to the location is about a 25-30 minute walk uphill but it is a beautiful walk even though you do need to walk up the main road. Communication with the company was decent though for some reason I could not get a detailed response for specific detail for walking up to the location from the port although once there in person, it is fairly self explanatory.”

“My wife's highlight of the trip! We had done a via feratta in Peru, so we had a pretty good idea of what we were getting into on this activity. Our expectations were surpassed entirely by Stian (the guide), the equipment, and the views. While it was tough (you have to be fit to do this comfortably), safety was never a concern. The cables, brackets, and anchors were in good shape, and I never felt any flex or give in them. My wife (and the pictures verify this) reports the views were amazing. I'm scared of heights, so I focused on the mountain and, with Stain's help, was able to…”
