Styvi

Styvi is a farm on the eastern side of Nærøyfjord that consists of two main farmsteads and includes a mountain farm called Hølmo with high pastures. The site stretches across steep slopes overlooking the fjord and contains a museum displaying objects from different time periods.

The settlement has existed continuously since the Bronze Age, with archaeological remains showing unbroken human presence. The site served as both a living space and working area across thousands of years.

The farm museum displays tools and objects from different periods, showing how people lived and worked here across generations. These items tell stories of daily tasks and skills that were necessary for survival in this remote location.

The farm can be reached by ferry between Flam and Gudvangen with a dedicated jetty allowing stops upon request. Visitors should know that the location is remote and access depends on ferry schedules.

The farm operated Norway's smallest post office for around 3 centuries as part of the Royal Post network, connecting isolated communities across western fjords. This was a vital lifeline for people living in these remote areas.
