The village of Sunndalsoera (Sunndalsora in Norwegian) sits on the shores of the Sunndalsfjord, at the point where the Drive River empties into the most easterly end of the fjord.

The village's most notable resident is the huge aluminium plant operated by Norsk Hydro.

The village is also a centre for research into aquaculture.

Arguably, this is an area of even more dramatic beauty than many other destinations in Norway.

Huge mountains tower above the sides of the fjord and the neighbouring valleys, their tops often shrouded in moody wisps of cloud.

One of the area's great attractions is the huge Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella National Park, which stretches for miles to the south of the village and is home to wild reindeer, birds of prey and Musk ox.

National Route 70, which runs through the community, makes it easy for anybody staying at hotels in Sunndalsoera to visit this park.

Cycling, hiking and mountaineering are popular in this area, with some of the closest peaks providing incredible views.

Litlkalkinn, the closest of the Sundal Mountains, towers above the village and offers fantastic vistas across the fjord.
