Mødal

Modal lies at the head of Mofjorden in Vestland, where steep, forested slopes rise from the narrow fjord into the mountain valleys of Modalen. This small settlement sits inland from the busier coastal communities around Bergen and belongs to one of Norway’s least populous municipalities. Water has shaped both the terrain and local life: rivers running down from the surrounding high ground support hydropower installations that are important to the area. Mo Church, a white wooden church built in 1883, reflects the long-standing parish life of this rural fjord community. Roads through Modalen lead towards forests, waterfalls and upland terrain rather than an urban centre. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Modalen.
