Bolstadfjorden, Fjord system in Vestland, Norway

The Bolstadfjorden extends for 12 kilometers through Vaksdal and Voss municipalities, forming part of the intricate fjord network near Bergen.

The Bergen railway line operated along the southern shore until 1987, when the construction of Trollkona Tunnel redirected the route through bedrock.

The fjord connects multiple Norwegian communities, integrating with the traditional maritime routes that define western Norwegian transportation networks.

European route E16, connecting Bergen to Oslo, follows the southern shoreline of Bolstadfjorden, utilizing former railway infrastructure.

The fjord maintains a threshold depth of 1.5 meters, generating strong tidal currents while reaching maximum depths of 160 meters.
