Leikanger, Norway

Leikanger is situated in a beautiful region in the heart of the Sognefjord. It is an excellent base from which to reach everything this part of Norway has to offer. At the same time, enjoy the mild climate allowing peaches, apricots and walnuts to thrive here. In 1840 the first steamboat began regular traffic in the Sognefjord. As a result, small pensions and hotels sprang up at the stopping places. One of the so called coaching stations was located at Leikanger. In a travel guide from 1896 you can read: \"Leikanger is a smiling, beautiful beach along the main fjord, located 260 km from Bergen. Charming place. Rooms available.\"
