Bringefossen was another named waterfall we saw on the Geiranger Fjord (Geirangerfjorden) Cruise. It was the second main one we saw, but it was the first with big volume. In fact, I had a tendency to want to confuse this waterfall with Gjerdefossen. However, unless the topo map on Norgesglasset was incorrect, the heavier flowing waterfall would still be the one tumbling on the Bringeselva (which is how this waterfall got its name, I'd imagine).
The high flow on this waterfall also made it quite photogenic as well as a nice lead in to the Seven Sisters and Friaren further into the Geiranger Fjord.
