Granvin Fjord

The Granvin Fjord  (Granvinsfjorden) is an arm of the Hardanger Fjord in the municipalities of Granvin and Ullensvang in Vestland county, Norway. The fjord is about 10 km long and its width is mostly less than 1 km. It has its inlet at the part of the Hardanger Fjord known as the Inner Samla Fjord (Indre Samlafjorden) between two small peninsulas: Furenes by the village of Tjoflot on the east side and Håstabbenes on the west side. From there, the fjord runs in a northeast direction to the village of Granvin at the head of the fjord. The fjord has steep sides and is bordered by mountains up to 1200 m high.

Norwegian National Road 7 runs along the entire west side of the fjord. It passes through the village of Kvanndal, about 2 km into the fjord, where there is a ferry connection across the Hardanger Fjord to Utne and Kinsarvik. The village of Folkedal lies 3 km further into the fjord, just before the Folkedal Tunnel. On the east side, across the fjord from Folkedal, is the village of Hamre. There are no significant settlements between these two villages and the head of the fjord.
