Trondheimsfjord, Fjord at Trøndelag, Norway.

The Trondheimsfjord extends 130 kilometers inland from the Norwegian Sea, reaching depths of 617 meters between Orkland and Indre Fosen municipalities.

During World War II, German forces constructed coastal defense fortifications along the fjord to prevent potential Allied invasions of the Trøndelag region.

Four major salmon rivers flow into the fjord, including Gaula, Orklaelva, Stjørdalselva, and Verdalselva, supporting local fishing communities and traditions.

The main section of Trondheimsfjord remains free of ice throughout the year, enabling continuous maritime transportation and commercial activities.

The waters of Trondheimsfjord contain one of the highest concentrations of giant squid specimens recorded globally, with four documented individuals.
