Once in a lifetime, you should visit the Fjords in Western Norway. Here are some of the longest, deepest, narrowest and most beautiful fjords in the world. And in Norway we have thousands of them!

Sognefjord – The world’s longest fjord adventure

Norway’s longest and deepest fjord, the Sognefjord, lies in the heart of the Norwegian fjord country called Fjord Norway and extends more than 200 km inland to the national parks of Jotunheimen and Jostedalsbreen.

Some places the Sognefjord is more than 1300 meters deep, with the surrounding mountains as high as the fjord is deep.

The Nærøyfjord is incorporated into the UNESCO World Heritage List. And the Norwegian Fjords are voted the world’s best travel destination by the National Geographic Traveler magazine. The Naeroyfjord is perhaps the most spectacular arm of the Sognefjord, and the narrowest fjord in the world, at on point only 250 metres across with mountains towering more than 1700 metres above its tranquil waters. The fjord area has been inhabited for about 10 000 years. The area has been farmed for almost 3000 years, and farming is still important for people living along the fjord.

At Aurlandsvegen Mountain Road, 650 meters above sea level, you will find the breathtaking view point Stegastein. Situated 6 kilometres from the centre of Aurland, you have a fantastic view of the Aurlandsfjord and the surrounding mountains.

The west Norwegian fjords are classic, superbly developed fjords, considered as the type locality for fjord landscapes in the world. They are comparable in scale and quality to other existing fjords on the World Heritage List and are distinguished by the climate and geological setting.
