Storfjorden, Fjord in Sunnmøre, Norway
The Storfjord extends 110 kilometers from Hareid village to Tafjord and Geiranger, with multiple branches including the Geirangerfjord and Tafjorden sections.
A catastrophic landslide struck Storfjord on January 8, 1731, generating a megatsunami that claimed 17 lives and destroyed numerous coastal residences.
Mountain farms such as Ytste Skotet, Me-Åkernes, Skageflå, and Knivsflå stand along the fjord shores, representing traditional Norwegian rural architecture.
Transportation across Storfjord relies on car ferries connecting municipalities, as no bridges or tunnels currently link the opposite shores.
The fjord reaches depths of 679 meters near Dyrkorn village, while surrounding mountains rise from 500 meters at the mouth to 1,800 meters inland.
