Bølifossen – The Pearl of Mørkrid Valley

Discover the beautiful natural and cultural landscapes of Mørkrid Valley on a guided cycling and hiking adventure to Bølifossen, a hidden gem near Breheimen National Park.

This experience combines scenic cycling, peaceful hiking, local history, and opportunities for fishing in one of the most beautiful valleys in the Sognefjord region.

The Cycling Adventure

Our journey begins in Skjolden, cycling through the lush and peaceful Mørkrid Valley, where only a small number of residents live year-round.

The cycling route takes approximately one hour each way, covering around 8 km through mostly flat terrain. The first 6 km follow a paved road, while the final 2 km continue along a gravel road.

Along the way, your local guide shares stories and historical photographs, offering insight into the valley’s traditional farming practices and its cultural heritage.

Hiking to Bølifossen

At Hødnevollen, we leave our bicycles and continue on foot towards Bølifossen.

The trail takes us deeper into the valley, surrounded by towering mountains, flowing rivers, and beautiful natural scenery. Along the way, we pass scenic rapids and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

After approximately 1.5 hours of hiking, we reach Bølifossen, a secluded and picturesque destination known as “The Pearl of Mørkrid Valley.”

Relax, Explore & Enjoy Nature

At Bølifossen, there is time to relax, explore the surrounding landscape, or try fishing in the nearby waters.

If you’re lucky enough to catch a mountain trout, you may even have the opportunity to prepare it on a portable stove and enjoy a freshly cooked meal surrounded by nature, subject to local fishing regulations.

The Return Journey

After enjoying our time at Bølifossen, we hike back to Hødnevollen, collect our bicycles, and cycle through Mørkrid Valley to Skjolden.
