Fjærland is one of the central towns in the glacier area. This is an excellent starting place for a tour of the glacier, whether you are here for sightseeing or a hiking trip. From here, you probably have the easiest access to Jostedalsbreen, where branches of the glacier reach as far down as 60 m (200 feet) above sea level. Fjærland can be reached from Balestrand on the Sognefjord by ferry or from Sogndal by bus. There is also a connection from Skein in the north.
