The charming wooden houses that line the village reflect its rich history, making it a cultural oasis steeped in national romanticism.

Solvorn has been home to a church since the 14th century, and while it was once a vital stop along the fjord's route, it remains central to the hearts of those who’ve experienced its magic. Ten thousand years ago, the area was shaped by glacial floods, creating the stunning Solvornsdalen valley.

Stay at the historic Walaker Hotel, built in 1640, or enjoy the cozy atmosphere at Eplet Bed & Apple or Villa Solvorn. Whether you’re kayaking, fishing, or hiking, outdoor activities abound. Don't miss the ferry from the village to Urnes, where you can visit the UNESCO-listed Urnes Stave Church ⛴️.
