  • The valley of Aurland


    Path VE14

    Hike the wild Aurlandsdalen Valley. Aurlandsdalen valley is one of the most beautiful and popular hikes in the area around Flåm. The almost 50 km long valley from Finse to Vassbygdi in Aurland is often called Norway’s answer to the Grand Canyon. Comparable or not, at least the last stretch from Østerbø to Vassbygdi is a trip all outdoor enthusiasts should do at least once in their lifetime. We start from Finse and walk all the way, we will use 4 days.

    The Aurlandsdalen valley is a demanding hike, and you should be used to hiking in varied terrain and in good physical shape before you start. Feel free to bring walking poles to relieve your knees. You need to carry your personal backpack all days, good rainclothes, sleeping bag is required. We sleep in tents, and are in the nature whole week.
