Tysfjorden, Deep fjord in Nordland, Norway.

The fjord extends 62 kilometers southward from Ofotfjorden, beginning near Korsnes village and continuing to Hellmobotn village near the Swedish border.

The fjord region functioned as primary transportation routes for coastal communities since settlement times, connecting inland areas with the Norwegian Sea.

The Árran Lule Sami Center in Drag village maintains and promotes the heritage of the Lule Sami people who inhabit the fjord region.

Regular ferry services connect Bognes to Skarberget and Drag to Kjøpsvik, as no bridges or tunnels cross the fjord's waters.

The waters reach a depth of 897 meters near Hulløya island, making Tysfjord the deepest fjord in Northern Norway.
