Liabygda and Stranda

We’re now passing Liabygda, an idyllic fjord village at the meeting point of the Storfjord and the Norddalsfjord. People here live close to nature, combining farming and small-scale industry with outdoor life and tourism. From the village, trails lead up toward Ansokhornet, a mountain offering breathtaking views across the Storfjord and the mighty Sunnmøre Alps. On clear days, you can see all the way to Stranda and deep into the Tafjord mountains — a view that perfectly captures why this region is known as Fjord Norway. Down by the fjord, the ferry crosses to Stranda, a vital link that has connected these communities for decades. It provides work, connection, and safe passage for both locals and travelers — just as it always has.
