While the Geirangerfjorden Waterfalls feature several named waterfalls (e.g. Gjerdefossen, Bringefossen, The Seven Sisters, Friaren, and Ljosurfossen), there are also countless unnamed ones as well. This page highlights a few of the ones you're likely to come across as you cruise this scenic fjord.
