Njordfjord - Nordfjordeid | Secret World Trip Planner

There are so many points of attraction throughout Scandinavia, but you have to start with the most incredible, must-see-to-believe land features: the fjords. These long narrow inlets stretch from the open sea to far inland, winding between towering cliffs for miles. Most fjords were made by glaciers over centuries.

Njordfjord - Nordfjordeid | Secret World Trip Planner

Norway has the most fjords of any nation in the world, and Njordfjord is one of the most beautiful. Along the 66-mile stretch, you can see waterfalls, glaciers, and snow-covered mountains in the distance—you might even see skiers any time of year! The fjord coastlines are dotted with little fishing towns and farms stretching into the valleys, so you can get a glimpse of largely unchanged rural life along the inlets.

Further inland, the town of Olden sits at the end of Njordfjord and offers easy access to Jostedalbreen Glacier, the largest sheet of ice in Europe!
