Introducing Balestrand
Balestrand sits comfortably beside the fjord, at its rear an impressive mountain backdrop. Genteel and low-key, it has been a tranquil, small-scale holiday resort ever since the 19th century. Its tourist office (57 69 12 55; www.midsogn.com; 7.30am-12.30pm & 1.30-6pm Mon-Sat, 10am-5pm Sun mid-Jun–mid-Aug; 8am-4pm Mon-Fri May-early Jun & mid-Aug–Sep) is opposite the ferry quay.
