Often referred to as "The Pearl of Hardanger," it is world renowned for its lush fruit orchards and is the only place in Norway with a dedicated Cider Route (Sideruta). This unique agritourism trail allows visitors to walk between three traditional farms Hardanger Saft- og Siderfabrikk, Syse Gard, and Ulvik Frukt & Sideri to sample award-winning apple ciders, juices, and local delicacies like cured meats.

Hardangerfjord, often known as the "Queen of the Fjords," is Norway's second-longest fjord (179 km) and is famous for its stunning, bucolic beauty, which combines majestic mountains, glaciers, and waterfalls with lush fruit orchards. The fjord is characterised by spectacular, steep mountain peaks that surround quiet, deep waters, with the Folgefonna glacier nearby. The area, known as Norway's orchard, is famed for producing apples, cherries, plums, and strawberries. Spring delivers magnificent blossoms, while October is harvest time.
