Norway is known for its fjord coast in the west of the country. The fjords were formed during the last ice age by valley glaciers which flowed down from their source area through already existing river valleys and they often cut many kilometres deep into the mainland.

Norwegen ist bekannt für seine Fjordküste im Westen des Landes. Die Fjorde entstanden in der letzten Eiszeit durch Talgletscher, die von ihrem Ursprungsgebiet durch bereits bestehende Flusstäler abwärts flossen und reichen oft viele Kilometer weit ins Festland hinein.
