General presentation
Voss
Lakes and mountains make Voss an active base between Bergen, Hardanger and Sognefjord.
Gondole de Voss, Cascade de Tvindefosse and Church of Vang give the most telling landmarks of Voss. Together, they form a destination where mountain reliefs, shores and lakes and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.

For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.
