This charming vacation home is nestled between majestic mountains with snow-capped peaks and a deep-blue fjord landscape. The utterly enchanting surroundings, with their majestic mountain peaks and, not to mention, the foothills of the Folgefonna Glacier, make for an attractive destination for a vacation home getaway by the fjord. Right in the middle of it all stands this cabin, glowing in classic Scandinavian red, waiting to welcome guests. The entire property is built of Nordic pine, which creates a pleasant and cozy atmosphere inside.

Fishing in the Maurangerfjord
Our vacation home is located in a sparselyarea with good fishing spots. Depending on the season, you can fish for cod, pollock, hake, ling, mackerel, flounder, salmon, and other fish. The fishing spots are easily accessible by motorboat. You can also catch fish while fishing from the dock. With a little luck, it’s even possible to catch a salmon or a sea trout. From the dock, you can often spot salmon and sea trout in the fjord.
The fish you catch can be filleted at the processing area on the dock so you can prepare them fresh back at the vacation home. Fishing in the fjord is free, and no fishing permit is required. If you want to fish for salmon or sea trout in the salmon river, you’ll need a fishing license. The season for salmon and sea trout runs from mid-June to mid-September.
There are several salmon rivers in the immediate vicinity, such as the Ænes Elva, Uskedalselva near Uskedal, etc. The salmon have an average weight of about 3–5 kilograms. About 11 kilometers from Fjordhytte 4–7 is the Ænes Elva, a salmon river that never fails to surprise. The largest salmon ever caught in the Ænes Elva weighed 13 kilograms. About 1 kilometer from Fjordhytte 4–7 toward the Folgefonn Tunnel is a fast-flowing stream that empties into the fjord. Large salmon are caught at the bridge. However, a fishing license must be purchased. The price is approximately NOK 100.- per day.
At Furebergfossen, a large waterfall between Sunndal and Ænes, you can fish for salmon for free. Here, the salmon gather in the rush of the waterfall. Fishing at Furebergfossen is an insider’s tip among local anglers. You don’t need a fishing license here.
The mountain lake “Botnavatnet,” which is within walking distance of Sunndal, is an absolute hidden gem. Here you can fish for trout for free without a fishing license. It is secluded, located about 800 meters above sea level. It takes about 2 hours to reach on foot.
Along with your travel documents, you’ll receive a map outlining the best fishing spots in the fjord and offering fishing tips.
