Bømoen, the local airstrip, is home to Skydive Voss—one of Norway's largest dropzones—and a gliding club.

Aurlandsfjord

The Aurlandsfjord is a striking fjord situated in Vestland county, coursing through the municipalities of Aurland, Vik, and Lærdal. This fjord extends for 29 km (18 miles) and is a tributary of the vast Sognefjorden, Norway's longest fjord. Known for its deep and narrow expanse, the Aurlandsfjord plunges to depths of approximately 962 metres (3,156 feet) and typically measures less than 2 km (1.2 miles) in width.
Roughly 11 km (6.8 miles) south of its mouth, the Nærøyfjord branches westward from the Aurlandsfjord. At the innermost point of the Aurlandsfjord lies the village of Flåm, while other settlements along its shores include Aurlandsvangen and Undredal. Much of the fjord is enveloped by steep mountains, towering as high as 1,800 metres (5,900 feet), with sparse habitation along its shores apart from a few secluded valleys. This landscape lends the Aurlandsfjord a dramatic and pristine natural setting.
