Private Full Day Hellesylt Highlights

Hellesylt is a small village in Stranda Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The village lies at the head of the Sunnylvsfjorden, which is a branch of the Storfjorden, and which the more famous Geirangerfjorden in turn branches off nearby.

Experience four seasons in one location that is ripe with lush green landscapes, snowcapped mountains, farms, and stunning water views. Start your epic journey with your knowledgeable, professional driver and guide and visit some of the highlights of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is difficult to drive this road without having several photo stops as the beautiful and wild scenery abounds everywhere. Epic views surround you as you drive the Oldedalen Valley along Lake Oldevatnet in Nordfjord towards Oldedalen and the Briksdal Glacier. View the Briksdalsbreen (Briksdal Glacier), one of the most accessible and best-known arms of the Jostedalsbreen Glacier.

Continue this thrilling day and travel the Gamle Strynefjellsvegen, the old mountain road. Not only staggeringly beautiful, this scenic route from Western Norway to the eastern part of Southern Norway is also designated as a listed road. The road itself is a landmark and a testimony to a masterpiece of engineering design from a bygone time. Built by manual labor towards the end of the 19th century, it conveys a historical presence. Old stone masonry and long rows of guard stones provide a sense of journeying backwards in time. The old road offers imposing contrasts in the landscape: to the east rounded shapes bearing the stamp of the ice age and to the west precipitous mountainsides.

As you travel the winding hairpin turns along Eagle Road. Along the path, ascend as high as 2,030 feet above sea level to catch panoramic views of the Eidsdal Valley. Experience a country like no other with jaw-dropping scenery as you drive along the Eagle Road hairpins, catch stunning views of rapids, snowcapped mountains and lush valley landscapes.

Your tour also includes a delicious stop in Geiranger village for a picnic lunch surrounded in nature, making this the ideal tour for nature aficionados and outdoor enthusiasts!
