Paddle the Fjords of
the Sunnmøre Alps
Storfjord is a spectacular fjord surrounded by the Sunnmøre Alps.
Beginning near Ålesund, Storfjord cuts
deep into the mountains
of Sunnmøre where it divides into the smaller more
dynamic fjords of Norddalsfjord,
Tafjord, Sunnylvsfjord
and finally the majestic waterway of Geirangerfjord.
In Geiranger the mountains block the sea from further penetrating Westward
and the granite walls climb up
1500m to mark the
gateway to the Jotunheimen. This is an area of raw
beauty with snow capped mountains,
towering granite walls,
high mountain farms, flowering fruit trees, and
quaint villages tucked into small protective
bays.
