Enjoy a ride on the modern Voss Cable Car, the largest in northern Europe.
Leaving Eidfjord, a small village at the head of the fjord, your coach drives along the fjord and crosses over the Hardanger Bridge, through the Vallavik Tunnel, and alongside Gravin Lake. Ascending some hairpin bends, pause briefly to photograph the Skjervet Waterfall before continuing through the Skjervet Pass. You'll descend through the fertile landscape to Voss — the largest town in the region and a popular ski resort and extreme sports center. Here, you'll hop aboard the newly-opened cable car for a 6.5-minute ride up the mountain to Hangurstoppen.
At 2,690 feet (820m) above sea level, enjoy refreshments of coffee or tea and waffles with a side of breathtaking views. Time permitting, head out into the fresh mountain air and enjoy a stroll on one of the many paths.
The cable car returns you to Voss for the coach journey back to Eidfjord.
Notes:
Tour requires a walk of 50 yards (50 m) from the coach to the cable car station. The cable car may not be exclusive to Holland America Line guests. The cable car can close at short notice. The tour route includes tunnels. Weather and atmospheric conditions vary; no guarantee is offered with regard to visibility or views on any particular day. Tour sequence may vary. Not suitable for those with a fear of heights. Expect long lines and delays at the cable car station. Children under the age of 3 must be secured in a child's car seat on the transportation. These are not available through the tour operator; you must bring your own from home.
