The landscape around Ulvik is a steep-sided fjord basin with sheltered slopes, which has shaped both the compact settlement and local fruit growing. The village sits at the head of Ulvikafjorden, an arm of the Hardangerfjord, where orchards are an established part of Hardanger’s agricultural identity. Apples and other fruit have long suited the local conditions, and cider production remains closely associated with the area. Ulvik is also linked to the Norwegian poet Olav H. Hauge; the Hauge Centre presents his life and work. Browse additional webcams from the Hardangerfjord area to extend your view of Vestland.
