Vindafjord

#VakreVindafjord consists of 9 lively villages spread out over 628 km2. The municipality is renowned for its fabulous fjord and mountainous landscape.Vindafjord and the former municipality of Ølen were amalgamated in 2006 to create today’s Vindafjord Municipality, whose motto is “vital and central”. The red colours in the Vindafjord coat of arms symbolise warmth and thoughtfulness, the silver colour reflects the silver of the sea, and the swirling emblem represents the place where the roads meet. Ølen is the municipality’s centre for trade and service activities. Vindafjord is home to several large companies such as Westcon, Omega, Fatland, Ølen Betong, Hattland Group, and Berge Sag. All of the municipality’s villages have a school and a kindergarten, excellent hiking areas, and proud inhabitants. At Bjoa there are rock carvings. At Vikebygd, one can train in an outdoor exercise park. At Vikedalselva River, one can fish for salmon and attend festivals in the summer. These are just some of what Vindafjord has to offer visitors.
