Trandal
A fjord settlement reachable only by boat, where a century-old farm has become a café and guesthouse. A place to experience quiet fjord living
Trandal lies on the northern stretch of the east shore of Hjørundfjord, backed by steep cliffs. It still has no road connection and can only be reached by boat or on foot. At the village, Christian Gaard preserves old farmhouses, boathouses and traditional household furnishings. In summer, it operates a café, restaurant and simple accommodation, where visitors can sit by the pier and watch the fjord and snowy peaks across the water. Ferries and fjord cruises call here in summer, but services are infrequent, so check the timetable in advance. It suits travellers who want to avoid the crowds.
