May–October

The bikes wait a short walk from the gangway. The Mørkrid valley is level and farmed, and the ride up it takes about an hour at an easy pace, with the guide stopping for the farms and their stories.

Where the road gives out, a path climbs to Drivandefossen — close enough for the spray to reach you — and there is a taste of local food at the falls before the ride back down.

  • An easy ride up a farmed valley
  • Drivandefossen, close enough to feel
  • Local food at the waterfall
