The Sognefjord

In the muncipality of  Høyanger you will find a nice part of the worlds longest fjord: The Sognefjord. Some 200  km long, and 1300 meter deep on its deepest right ouside of  Vadheim, 25 minut south of Førde. If you travel from Bergen by car or bus you will meet the Sognefjord where  E-39 crosses the fjord from Oppedal to Lavik.

Dalsfjorden
Dalsfjorden - Bygstad The Dalsfjord is the authentic Viking fjord. Where the Gaular watercourse plunges into the fjord in the shape of Osfossen Waterfall, marks the start of national poet Jakob Sande's  fjord. It was from this fjord that Ingolf Arnason set sail from. He was the first governor on Iceland. The Gaular Play (a Viking drama) is performed every other year at Osen Farm. Or you might like to try your hand at rowing on board a real Viking longboat in Bygstad.
