Proof that not all fjords are created equal, Nordfjordeid is a sensory overload of blue glaciers, majestic mountains, fertile valleys, and deep lakes – Norway at its wildest best. Visit Briksdal Glacier inside Jostedalsbreen National Park for a photo opportunity of a world-famous glacier arm set amid waterfalls and high peaks. Ride the Loen Skylift for predictably spectacular views of the fjords below. Villages that date back to Viking times abound, but the region’s most famous historical treasure is a full-size (100 feet long, 20 feet wide) replica of the ship of a Viking king called the Myklebust. Based on remains found in a burial mound excavated in 1874, this pride of a nation is displayed at Sagastad knowledge center.
