Walking and trekking

Walking and trekking

The mountain areas surrounding the innermost half of the Sognefjord are among Norway’s most popular walking and hiking areas. The most famous are the Jotunheimen National Park, the Jostedalsbreen National Park, Breheimen and the Aurlandsdalen and Utladalen valleys, but there are many beautiful walks to choose from everywhere along the fjord.
