Skjolden, at the far end of the Sognefjord, the longest and deepest fjord in Norway, is one of the most picturesque villages in the country. Come for the nature, the hiking, the views, and to see life in one of the most pristine places in the world. We walked out to the lake, hiked up to the lookout, tasted locally made cider, met new friends, went out to the waterfall, swam, and watched the brave local kids jump from the bridge into the icy waters of the fjord. There isn't anywhere in the village where the views aren't spectacular, but it's the local produce, local people, and local life that make this a special place to visit.
