Solvorn
A small village of white wooden houses on the fjord, home to Norway's oldest family-run hotel, with a ferry to the Urnes Stave Church across the water.
Solvorn is a small fishing village on the west shore of Lustrafjorden. White wooden houses line the waterfront, and it is considered one of the most beautiful villages in the Sogn region. The Walaker Hotel in the village has been run by the same family since the 1640s, making it one of Norway's oldest hotels. It also has a gallery. A ferry from the village pier takes about 15 minutes to the Urnes Stave Church across the water, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The village is very small and can be walked in about an hour. It is also near the starting point for climbing Mount Molden.
