Nærøydalen

Join a guided tour around Stalheim with photographer Gunnar Bergo and get an introduction to photography of nature and culture in Nærøydalen!

The area around Stalheim has been used for many years for nature photography and as a motif in famous paintings. The plunging waterfalls, high mountains and the spectacular Stalheimskleiva have long captured the attention of photographers and artists.

This year's World Heritage Tour in Voss County will be held at Stalheim, where the theme of the tour is an introduction to photography of nature and culture in the World Heritage area. From Stalheim you have a beautiful view down into Nærøydalen, where, among other things, Jordalsnuten was the starting point for the famous painting "From Stalheim" by JC Dahl. Gunnar Bergo, a well-known nature photographer from the area, will share tips and tricks on the tour on how to capture the atmosphere of the landscape.

The tour starts with a meeting at Stalheim. We take the trip down Stalheimskleiva, where we get a magnificent view of the waterfalls. The tour goes through various famous viewpoints, where we work with photography and how to capture the magic of Nærøydalen. We use Stalheim hotel as a base, where there will be the opportunity to buy lunch or move indoors if the weather allows for rainy and atmospheric photos.
