Hjørundfjorden Fjord & Mountains

A Classic Norwegian Fjord

The Hjørundfjorden is one of the wildest and least-developed fjords in the Sunnmøre Alps, a deep arm of water hemmed by towering ridges. The view looks out from the Hustadneset shore across the fjord toward the lush green slopes of the far bank.

Snow-Capped Sunnmøre Alps

Above the waterline rise the jagged summits of the Sunnmøre Alps, their upper flanks streaked with lingering snow well into the season. These peaks are a magnet for hikers and mountaineers exploring the rugged backcountry around the fjord.

The Village of Sæbø

On the opposite shore the small settlement of Sæbø hugs the waterline, a tranquil fjord-side community in Møre og Romsdal. The grassy, rock-strewn foreground and the broad sweep of the fjord make this a serene window onto rural western Norway.
