When the winter storms roll inn from the sea, Solund reveals its wildest side. The wind picks up, waves crash against the rocky shores, and the ever-changing light continuously transforms the landscape. Together with a local guide, you can experience the forces of nature up close – safely and memorably.
Feel the power of the sea
Solund lies on the outermost edge of the west coast of Norway, where the open sea meets a landscape of islands, islets, skerries and distinctive conglomerate rock. Here, wind and waves have shaped both the landscape and life along the coast for generations.
Sognefjord Active takes you out to experience this landscape when the weather truly shows its strength. Your guide knows the area and will find the best places to watch the waves crash against the shore, feel the sea spray in the air and experience the drama from a safe distance.
Hiking through the distinctive coastal landscape
Storm watching isn't just about waiting for bad weather. It's about experiencing the coast on its own terms.
On calmer days, other opportunities open up. Sognefjord Active can take you on a guided hike through the distinctive coastal landscape, where you'll learn more about the nature, history and way of life along the coast.
When conditions are right, kayaking offers a unique way to explore the archipelago. From the water, you can get close to islets and skerries and discover traces of the people who, for generations, have used the sea as their main route for travel.
