Folgefonna National Park, established in 2005, safeguards the vast Folgefonna glacier and its surrounding wild terrain. Visitors can hike marked trails through lush valleys and rocky moraines, ski on the glacier's summer ski resort, or simply soak in panoramic views of icy blue crevasses and the Hardangerfjord. The park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering everything from gentle nature walks to challenging glacier crossings. Its distinctive feature is the accessibility of a major ice cap combined with coastal fjord scenery, creating a unique blend of alpine and maritime environments.
