Vøringsfossen Shuttle Bus

Transport between Eidfjord and Vøringsfossen is seasonal. A timetable or fare from a previous year should not be treated as current: verify the operator, dates, stops and return journey for the day you plan to travel.

Seasonal rather than year-round
Confirm the return before leaving Eidfjord
Keep a taxi or revised itinerary as backup

Where to check

Start with Visit Eidfjord, Entur and the current regional operator. Confirm that the service goes to a Vøringsfossen visitor stop rather than only passing through Eidfjord or continuing along Route 7.

Questions to confirm

Check the operating dates, departure stop, arrival side, fare, ticket method, luggage rules and final return. Ask whether weather or road restrictions can cancel the service at short notice.

Time at the waterfall

Compare the gap between arrival and return with the open route. Around 1–2 hours can work for the developed viewpoints, but closures may change where you can walk and where the bus collects passengers.

Backup plan

Do not rely on an unbooked taxi appearing at the viewpoint. If service is uncertain, arrange a taxi in advance, join a confirmed excursion or keep the day in Eidfjord rather than risk missing the return.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a year-round bus to Vøringsfossen?

Do not assume one. Visitor transport is seasonal and schedules can change each year.

How much does the shuttle cost?

Use the current operator timetable. Old prices are not reliable enough for trip planning.

Can I buy a ticket on the bus?

Ticket methods vary by operator. Confirm whether advance booking or an app is required before departure.
