Now you are really in glacier country, and close to your destination, Fjærland Fjordstove. The village of Fjærland, with its 300 residents, is located right on the fjord. Take in the incredible view and the cosy village when you take a walk down the street.
The village center is called Mundal, and is known as the Booktown. This is paradise for any booklover who could spend hours browsing through the selection in the village’s second hand bookshops. When you need a break you can simply sit down at one of the little cafés around.
