Naeroyfjord
Nordfjord is located between Europe's biggest mainland glacier and wildest coast at the western cape in Norway, home to breathtaking valleys and mountains, dramatic coastline, and rolling farmland. Here's my list of top-rated attractions in Nordfjord.
1. The Flam Railway. Is it the most beautiful train trip in the world? The Flam Railway will transport you from towering mountains at Myrdal station, and below to the lowest point of Aurlandsfjord and Flam station, all via amazing scenery. You could even try combining Flam Railway and a bicycle trip down the valley to enhance your experience.
2. Arthouse Fern. It's an art studio managed by a female artist, who, inspired by fjord life, in 2020, started creating handcrafted jewellery as well as decorative objects--all from high quality resin.
Signature edition of Fern now range from see-through jewellery covered with nature-related items such as rocks, flowers, and shells. She can build unique pieces to fit all living spaces with her wide palette of colors.
3. Flam Church. It's a wooden longchurch built in 1670 by the master builder Magne Essen, with a seating capacity of only 160. The church actually replaced an older one that was brought down in 1670, which was probably a stave church sitting about on the same location as the current church. Today Flam church is a "soka" church intended for the Flam "soka" in the Aurland parish.
4. Kjelfossen Waterfall. It is one of Norway's highest waterfalls. The falls are situated close to Gudvangen village in Aurland Municipality. Boasting a towering height of 705 meters, it's recorded as the world's 18th tallest waterfall. The highest single drop is 198 meters.
5. Norwegian Glacier Museum. It's overall expression of main exhibition design was created in 1995. It includes "The Educational Playground," where it displays mammoth family sculptures. Its exhibition now covers 13 languages. It also features the biggest calving event ever recorded on tape.
