Loen

Among the settlements of Vestland, Loen stands out for the abrupt rise from Nordfjord to Mount Hoven. The village sits where the Loelva reaches the fjord, with Lake Lovatnet and the Lodalen valley extending south towards Jostedalsbreen National Park. Loen Skylift, opened in 2017, climbs from the fjord shore to Hoven at 1,011 metres above sea level, bringing mountain walking routes within reach. Hotel Alexandra, founded in 1884, reflects Loen’s longstanding place in Norwegian tourism. The setting has drawn travellers looking for fjords, lakes and high mountain terrain for generations.
