Eleven hairpins above one of the world's great fjords.
The Ørnevegen, 'Eagle Road', climbs eleven tight hairpins out of Geiranger to the Ørnesvingen lookout, with the UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord and the Seven Sisters falls dropping away below. Spectacular and busy in season; mind the coaches on the bends, the cyclists, and the sheer drops.
