Sygnesand

Sygnesand lies along Jølstravatnet, a long inland lake enclosed by the steep, glacially shaped mountains of Vestland. It belongs to Jølster, a rural part of Sunnfjord where water, woodland and high ground set the scale of settlement. The wider district is closely associated with the painter Nikolai Astrup; his former home, Astruptunet, is preserved as a museum near the lake. Routes through Jølster lead towards valleys beneath Jostedalsbreen, mainland Europe’s largest glacier. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Vestland.
