Norway's deepest and longest fjord
Norway’s longest fjord, the Sognefjord, lies in the heart of Norwegian fjord country and extends more than 200 km (120 miles) inland.
The region where this deep fjord meets the glaciers and Norway’s highest mountains is considered one of the world's most beautiful travel destinations. The King of fjords extends 204 km (127 miles) inland, has a maximum depth of 1,308 meters and the mountains surrounding the fjord tower to heights of 2,000 meters. The inner end of the Sognefjord is covered by Jostedalsbreen, the biggest glacier in continental Europe.
The Sognefjord is the second longest fjord in the world, and it also the most beautiful and dramatic fjord. The glaciers on the top of the mountains, down the steep mountainsides to green farmland and deep fjords will all make indelible impressions.
