petuniaflower Posted February 13 #1 Share Posted February 13 Looking for some input/advice/suggestions (family with older teens/young adults) on our itin for August-N Europe 7 day and we'd like to explore Copenhagen for a day since its our embarkation port..ports in Norway/Germany, and would like to head to Sweden for a night pre cruise. Obviously we still need to drill down our plans better, but its a start..we dont love museum type things, do like outdoors/local snacks. Arrive Copenhagen on Friday and either go straight to Malmo Sweden for a night, then back to Copenhagen to explore for Saturday to Sunday..or arrive in Copenhagen on Friday and explore/stay from Friday to Saturday, then Saturday head to Malmo for the night, and return Sunday for cruise..not sure which is best? Malmo-pedal boats/hike..? Copenhagen-stromma canal cruise/round tower/rosenborg castle Hellesylt-hike/waterfall..? Molde-caves/aker stadium/varden hike/gondola Flam-zipline/hike Kiel-sub..? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaisatsu Posted February 13 #2 Share Posted February 13 Are you only going to Hellesylt, and not Geiranger? If so, do you know which waterfall? In Geiranger, the Storseter waterfall hike is a common cruise excursion, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The hike is mostly through an upper valley with very little view of the iconic fjord below. I much prefer the hikes to the Vesteråsfjellet or Løsta overlooks. If you’re visiting on of the most iconic fjords on the planet, I think it’s worth getting great views of said fjord.

It only lists Hellesylt, so ya I think so. I think its this-Helllesytfosse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re only visiting Hellesylt, I’d look for a tour that includes a fjord cruise to Geiranger. The last stretch of the fjord between Hellesylt and Geiranger is quite stunning. Very steep and narrow with some lovely famous waterfalls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
