5.00Rose guided us on a really beautiful and peaceful hike through the woods that included a wonderful waterfall. The scenery was amazing and we saw very few other people on the trail. Rose was a fantastic guide and made the whole experience perfect. Her love of the area and Norway really showed. She always made sure we were safe and comfortable and shared lots of local knowledge with us. This was an excursion for us from a cruise ship and she insured we were back to the port with plenty of time to spare. We would highly recommend this hike.
