What to do and see in Sogn og Fjordane, Western Norway: The Best Other Outdoor Activities

August 12, 2021 Kiesha Cripe

Rich in mountains, islands, glaciers, farmlands and fjords, Sogn og Fjordane is best known for Sognefjord, the longest in Norway and the second-longest in the world. One of its arms, Nærøyfjord, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as is the 12th-century Urnes Stave Church near Lustrafjorden, an excellent example of traditional Scandinavian wooden architecture. Jostedalsbreen, the largest glacier on mainland Europe, is home to a national park with several museums and visitor centers.

On a dark,wet winters day (+1C) called in here on a recommendation from a local. Had the place to ourselves, 2adults 2 kids. Phenomenon thought and designed went into this community owned asset (council), only wish my own country had as much pride in designing publicly owned buildings. Kids had their first ever sauna and steam and loved the electronic timer on the slide (that I won!). We all jumped in the cold pool too. Opening times aren’t normal times so check before visiting.
