The Sognefjord and its beautiful fjord arms
The Sognefjord has several distinctive fjord arms winding their way between steep mountains to end in small, picturesque villages. One of the most spectacular branches of the Sognefjord is the world-famous Nærøyfjord, which has now been included on UNESCO's World Heritage List. You can choose between different boat trips to experience the beauty of the fjords all year round.
