Hardangerfjord, Fjord
NORWAY
With a length of 179 km, the Hardangerfjord in the county of Hordaland in Norway is the third largest fjord in the world and the second largest in Norway. About 10,000 years ago the Scandinavian land mass started to rise up as enormous glacial ice started to melt. The lower parts of the valleys became flooded, and so created what we today know as the Hardangerfjord. The valley was originally not only made through glacial erosion but by the high pressure melting water which pushed its way beneath the ice.
