The Eagle Road (rnevegen) is the name of the 11 sharp turns on Highway 63 between Geiranger and Ezdar, similar to the nine-turn bar in Jiuzhaigou. Because every year, a few days before the road opens, eagles are often named near the observation deck at the highest point of the hairpin bend, the wing of the eagle (620 m). In fact, after walking, I feel that it is not so difficult. The photos I took are on the right side of the eagle road. The last one is to look back at the fjord after going to the top.

It is one of the three legendary roads in Norway. Unlike the Elf Road, this road is open all year round. We went in April. The ice and snow on the roadside did not completely melt. After partial melting, it would collapse from the mountainside. We still need to be careful. As for the rest, this type of road is actually quite ordinary.
The Norwegian Eagle Road from Geiranger to Andalensnes is a 63-way stretch of road, as it offers beautiful views over the world heritage site Galenger Fjord and a macro-view of the glacier moving extrusion rock formations that make the fjord well worth a visit.
From the visitor center, the right hand side of the road 63 ahead to the famous Eagle Road. Ornevegen Eagle Road, to connect 11 hairpin bays with this domineering name. At the highest point of Haijiawan, the Eagle Wing Observation Deck (620 meters), overlooks Gai Village on the left and the big bend on the right overlooking Gaiwan, with invincible scenery at your feet. From the mountain down to the mountain observation deck, the winding eagle road, while walking, while watching, about 1 hour and 40 minutes to reach the observation deck. During the whole hiking process, only I was walking alone. Soon after arriving, God pityed my hardships, suddenly the sun broke through the thick clouds, like a huge light source shining on the left lower town, fairy spirits lingering, chaotic clouds flying. The sun slowly moves to the right high mountain, and then spills into the big bend of the fjord, making such a perfect panoramic picture. From time to time, someone drives by and stops on the viewing platform to enjoy the photo. Sunshine, clouds, small towns, fjords, waterfalls, snow fields, cliffs, cliffs are indispensable, ghostly work, nature charm is vivid here. Thank you God for leaving such a beautiful picture in my memory in my lifetime. Looking high, magnificent, relaxed and happy can not help to write a poem, seven laws "the road to the eagle": climbing high and far away to drive the clouds and mist, there are people in the depths of the fjord, there is no place to hold the throat, only the eagle spread its wings.
The Eagle Road is the most dangerous mountain road in the Geirangerfjord, with a nearly 180-degree turn between the roads, forming a state of Z-word connection. It is really spectacular and thrilling to stand on high, imagine how much skill and courage it takes to drive on this road.
Eleven bends before and after, the road is not wide, pay attention to avoid the opposite car.
