Nordfjordeid

National romanticism, a multitude of arts and summer on horseback. Nordfjordeid is a Norwegian gem that simply has to be experienced.

Nordfjordeid is situated in Sogn og Fjordane, along Eidsfjorden which is part of Nordfjord. The village is famed for its outstanding scenery and there are plenty of outdoor and cultural activities on offer.

If you want to experience beautiful architecture you should visit Eid Church in Nordfjordeid. The church dates back to 1849 but there have been four or five previous churches on the site. The wooden church is known for its national romantic characteristics and the magnificent paintings on the walls.

Eid is considered the cultural capital of Sogn og Fjordane and Operahuset Nordfjord, which is a venue for all types of stage art, opened in 2009. Here you can experience concerts and films, or visit the library. If you want more culture, you should visit Kulturhuset Gamlebanken, a cultural community for paintings, photographs and music which also acts as a venue for art enthusiasts in the region. In summer, the Malakoff Festival of Rock attracts numerous visitors to Nordfjordeid.

If you like horses you can enjoy the magnificent scenery from the back of the famous fjord horses! The riding camps at Nordfjordeid are very popular during the summer. The Norwegian Fjord Horse Centre arranges mountain rides in the environment where the horses feel most at home. Nordfjordeid is also known for the Stallion exhibition which has been held since 1886 and has become an international event attracting visitors from around the globe.

Nordfjordeid can be reached by plane from Oslo’s international airport, or on an internal flight from Sandane Airport, if you’re touring around Norway. To get the most from your visit to Western Norway, travelling by bus is a great option, leaving you free to admire the scenery along the road. Express buses depart from Oslo, Bergen and Trondheim daily, and these cities all have international airports with regular flights to the UK.

Whether you are visiting for nature or culture, a visit to Nordfjordeid is well worth it! The most beautiful scenery in Western Norway can be found in Hardanger.

"Hotel was quiet. Our room was spacious and comfy. The furniture was a little dated and a lightbulb was out in the light near the door. It's a budget hotel, so very basic but clean and good for a night stay over. Only thing I can imagine needing in the room was a kettle to make coffee in the morning. ..."
