"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails."
- Mark Twain

Eidfjord offers a blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage. The town is a gateway to Norway's Hardangervidda National Park, providing access to vast plateaus and diverse wildlife. The Vøringsfossen waterfall is a must-see attraction. Water cascades 182 meters (nearly 600 feet) into the Måbødalen valley, creating a cinematic atmosphere. A pedestrian bridge over the waterfall, built in 2020, allows visitors to experience it up close.
Outdoor activities abound in Eidfjord, from hiking and fishing to boat tours on the fjord. The town's proximity to the Hardangervidda plateau makes it an ideal starting point for exploring Norway's largest national park.
