Let your keyboard fingers experience sea urchins, cold fishing nets and wet fish. Decompress! Sit on the boat’s bow and dangle with your legs outside the boat, and feel the fresh air flicker in your hair, or the rain kissing your cheek.

COLD HANDS - VARM HEARTS - I AM SOGNEFJORD

“Neglesprett” is a fun experience and typically Norwegian (a prickly feeling in the fingers) when you have been out and pulled up fishing nets from cold water and the heat returns to your hands Only comes when you have been out on an adventure.

CURIOSITY - THE NEW SUPER POWER

Add a Norwegian flag and you’re on a fjord expedition! In winter, it’s desolate and barren in here. In February and March, the snow descends in avalanches down steep mountains and right into the spring rocks. Eagles, deer and marine mammals also roam. Orcas! Did you know that whale poo is important for fertilizing ecosystems and thus plankton production?

We also have sharks in the Sognefjorden, Dogfish! It swims up from the depths in search of herring and has skin teeth that feel like sandpaper when you stroke it. Very stylish experience.

WHEN THE JOURNEY IS THE DESTINATION..

We stop along the way. Tor has grown up here in the village, shares passionate knowledge and so that you understand the context in a fun way. Some Fjord tourists describe this trip as a beautiful fjord gallop. Want to try?

TRAVELING IS NOT ABOUT PRACTICAL USE, BUT RATHER AN EXPRESSION OF INDIVIDUALITY. A FJORD ADVENTURE IS JUST A PIECE OF ICONOGRAPHY.

The energy in #fjærlandsfjorden is special, more original. There is a power here in this fjord, among the high mountains, which strengthens both your heart and your spirit. This power makes us strong men and women. Captain Tor knows how to find this experience.
