Feigefossen
A 218 m (720 ft) high waterfall. The waterfall can be seen from route FV331. A path let you take a closer look. If you continue on the path there is a place right by the bottom of the waterfall where you can take a sip of pure, safe snowmelt.
Dale kyrkje
A modest gothic, medieval parish church with an impressive soapstone portal (visible indoor only) and murals.
Urnes Stavkyrkje
The oldest stave church in Norway, built around 1130 AD. Included on UNESCO World Heritage List. Due to its fame, the stave church in Urnes tends to be quite crowded. You can only access the church through a guided tour, which will give you very good information but also very limited flexibility in discovering the details of the building for yourself (or taking pictures). Plan accordingly.
The FV331 is a 30 km scenic road along the eastside of the fjord. The road is narrow with several curves, so drive slowly. From Urnes you can take the ferry to Solvorn. This is a nice alternative to route 55.
Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein had a vacation lodge on an isolated spot above the lake, he spent long periods there working on his theories. The building was later moved down to Skjolden, but has since been moved back to its original foundations. Barely visible across the lake from road 55. If you are walking from the town, you have to walk a stretch along the lake before reaching the trail. The last part of the trail is quite steep, and can be slippery if it is wet.
