Boat Trip on the Barsnesfjorden & Årøy River

Join us for a boat trip to explore the Barsnesfjorden fjord and the Årøy River in Norway. We will meet at the Bryggjegota pier at the designated time and set off from Sogndal.

During the trip, we will pass under the Loftesnes Bridge and navigate the 5-kilometer-long (3-mile) Barsnesfjorden, surrounded by emerald green hills reflecting in the clear waters.

We will also see the village of Barsnes, known for its traditional wooden houses, ideal for photographs. As we approach the Årøy River, we will discuss its history as a famous sport fishing location since the 19th century.

The river is known for housing some of the largest salmon in the world, with a record catch weighing 34 kilos (75 pounds). After an hour of exploration, we will return to Bryggjegota pier to conclude our adventure.
