Technically not a fjord cruise (it's on a lake), there are few boat trips more beautiful than the trip on Lovatnet lake in the Lodalen Valley, encircled by high mountains and glacier tongues of Jostedalsbreen glacier.

Start from Balestrand sailing in towards the village Fjærland. The Fjærlandsfjord is beautiful and majestic as it is surrounded by steep mountains, some still covered with snow on the peaks. The water has a bright green colour because of the melt water from the glaciers that flows into the fjord. A fantastic boat trip from the unique architecture village Balestrand through the beautiful fjord arm towards the Jostedalsbreen Glacier.

A hidden gem! The highlight of the cruise is the view towards the Langfoss waterfall. Langfoss has an impressive drop height of 612 metres, and in 2011 CNN Travel rated Langfoss as one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world.
