Voss Municipality

Voss is a municipality located in Vestland county, with its administrative center in the village of Vossevangen. The area is renowned for its stunning natural surroundings, including snow-capped mountains, lush forests, serene lakes, and fast-flowing rivers. These features have made Voss a prominent hub for various adventure sports, such as skiing, watersports, skydiving, and paragliding. Each year in late June, the region hosts the Ekstremsportveko (Extreme Sports Week), considered the world's leading extreme sports festival. Bømoen, the local airstrip, is home to Skydive Voss—one of Norway's largest dropzones—and a gliding club. The rivers attract enthusiasts of kayaking, rafting, and river boarding, while lake Vangsvatnet sees activities like kite surfing and para-bungee. To the north of the town, visitors can access the ski area via the Voss Gondol cable car.

Stalheimskleiva

The village of Stalheim is situated along the highway in the northeastern part of Voss municipality, positioned at a high elevation within the Nærøydal valley, which extends northeastward towards Nærøyfjorden. During the summer months, visitors have the opportunity to travel the historic Stalheimskleivi road, constructed in 1850, featuring hairpin turns and a steep 20% grade, offering a thrilling and scenic drive down into the valley. Stalheimsfossen waterfall stands out as the area's most prominent attraction, and the panoramic view from Stalheim Hotel has been immortalized in several paintings.
