Folda

The Folda fjord extends into the Norwegian landscape with two distinct branches, Nordfolda and Sørfolda, spanning 60 kilometers into the mainland.

The fjord played a central role in maritime navigation during the Norse period, serving as a vital waterway for trade and transportation between settlements.

Local communities along the fjord maintain traditional fishing practices, with multiple generations of families operating small fishing vessels throughout the seasons.

Regular ferry services connect settlements along both branches of the fjord, providing essential transportation for residents and access to remote coastal areas.

The fjord reaches depths of 540 meters, creating specific conditions that support diverse marine ecosystems and fish populations throughout the year.
