hordaland
The fjords give Hordaland its character. Whether you choose to begin furthest in, coming from eastern Norway, where Norway’s highest mountain plain, the Hardanger Plain, dives steeply down towards the fjord, or at the outermost point, furthest west at the ocean’s edge, the fjords mark the scenery. Hardanger fjord stretches 179 km from the ocean to the mountains, and is Hordaland’s longest fjord. It meets the Hardanger Plain at its tip in the mountainous, yet fjordside, district of Eidfjord. Rural communities widely famous for their beauty string along the fjord, with the fruit-growing districts of Ulvik and Ullensvang being among the most widely known.
