EIDFJORD CRUISE PORT HARDANGERFJORD Fjord, Mountains and Waterfalls Within 30 Minutes from Eidfjord EIDFJORD CRUISE PORT HARDANGERFJORD Fjord, mountains and waterfalls within 30 minutes from Eidfjord DESTINASJON EIDFJORD AS Eidfjord Cruisehavn - Eidfjord Cruiseport / Turistinformasjon - Touristinformation www.visiteidfjord.no all year EIDFJORD CRUISE PORT - HARDANGERFJORD Eidfjord is located in the innermost part of the famous Hardangerfjord. The cruise port is located in the centre of Eidfjord and offers the very best and safest conditions. Eidfjord has a population of around 930. We are a thriving community and enjoy the fjord and moun- tains throughout the year. Hardangerfjord is the second longest fjord in Norway, 179 km – also called the Queen of the Fjords. Vøringsfossen waterfall has been Norway’s most visited natural attraction for a long time. During the next five years there will be construction on the viewpoints to make this attraction one of three na- tional tourist icons in Norway! The work has already started, but it will never disturb the normal tour- ist traffic, the project will be done in 2020. The Hardangervidda plateau and the Hardangerfjord are well-known far beyond Norway’s borders. Due to the mild climate the region is also the orchard of Fjord Norway – here we grow apples, plums, pears and cherries. The blossom season in May/June is unique – the mountain sides are covered in white, pink and red flowers, from the white snow at the top down to the blue fjord. July – October is the harvesting season for fruit, sweet cherry and cider festivals in the small villages along the fjord. Eidfjord offers a unique natural environment. With large contrasts and small distances you can ex- perience the most and best of what Norway has to offer. Our visitors can find peace and quiet in the natural environment, in addition to visiting many of our attractions. Eidfjord is the gateway to the Har- dangervidda, the largest high mountain plateau in Europe and Norway’s largest national park. Welcome to annualy events and festivals in Eidfjord: Expedition Amundsen (Feb/March), National Day (May 17th), Hardanger Music Festival (Mai/June), Midsummer Night (June 23rd), Minitriathlon (August), Norseman Xtreme Triathlon (August), Hardangervidda Marathon (September), Local Food Festival (Sept/Oct). The HARDANGER BRIDGE, which opened in August 2013, has made Eidfjord easier to access. It is a 2 lane suspension bridge with sidewalks for pedestrians and bikers. The main span is 1310 me- ters and the total length is 1380 m. The airdraft is 55 meters. The bridge is the longest suspension bridge in Norway. 3 CONTENTS TECHNICAL INFORMATION 8 MAP OF EIDFJORD PORT 9 HARBOUR PRICES 10 WASTE HANDLING AT EIDFJORD CRUISE PORT 11 DISTANCE TABLE / MAPS 12 ATTRACTIONS & SUGGESTIONS IN EIDFJORD 15 5 photo: Agurtxane Concellon PORT OF EIDFJORD FACILITIES AND FACTS photo: Agurtxane Concellon PORT OF EIDFJORD - TECHNICAL INFORMATION Length quay: 120 meters Depth of quay: 10,7 meters Able to handle ships: up to 350 + meters in length Air Draft: 55 meters Water supply: Capacity per tonne, approx 70 m 3 per hour.

    Meir sjøaure i vassdraga kring Hardangerfjorden Restaurering og habitatforbetrande tiltak i sjøaurevassdrag langs Hardangerfjorden.

Overordna mål å arbeide for å styrke lokale bestandar av laks og sjøaure i fjord og vassdrag. Sjøauren – ein historisk viktig art for Hardangerbygdene A. F. Mockler-Ferryman si reiseskildring “In the Northman’s Land” (London 1896): Om Eide/Granvin: There is very fair salmon and trout fishing, and, when the river is not let, the guests at the hotel can try their luck, though, owing to the numerous salmon traps, the chances are against the angler taking any large salmon, but, still, the sea-trout are not to be despised.. Om Eidfjord: ..This, then, is the time for the sportsman, who, with a boatman af any intelligence and with the proper minnows, should manage to kill a goodly number of sea-trout in the afternoon. .. Apart from salmon fishing, I know of no greater excitement (in a mild way) than to try conclusions with a heavy sea-trout and a light rod.

  • Folketal Og Demografi 2 Føreord
    HORDALAND I TAL Nr. 1 - 2018 Folketal og demografi 2 Føreord Hordaland i tal nr. 1 2018 presenterer folketalsutviklinga i fylket og på regions- og kommunenivå. I dette nummeret tek vi og eit blikk nordover til Sogn og Fjordane som saman med Hordaland skal inngå i Vestland fylkeskommune frå 1. januar 2020. Frå 2017 til 2018 auka folketalet i Hordaland med 0,5 % som er den lågaste veksten sidan 1998. Hordaland er ikkje ein isolert del av Europa og av verda, men blir påverka av internasjonale konjunkturar, av krigar og sosial uro og nød i andre delar av verda som driv menneske på flukt. Dette påverkar folketalsut- viklinga i Hordaland. Innvandring har bidrege positivt til folketalsutviklinga i alle kommunar i Hordaland og Sogn og Fjordane sidan 2013 og statistikken viser at mange kommunar er heilt avhengig av nye innbyggjarar frå utlandet. For kommunane med befolkningsnedgang har innvandringa bremsa reduksjonen i folketalet. I 2017 fekk vi ein kraftig reduksjon i innvandringa til Hordaland. Samstundes ser vi at det kjem stadig færre innvandrar frå Europa, som har dominert innvandringsstraumen til Hordaland dei seinare åra. Dette heng saman med auken i arbeidsløyse i Noreg og i nokre høve ein betre økonomisk situasjon i dei landa dei har kome frå. Polakkar er likevel framleis den klårt største innvandrargruppa i Noreg. Saman med rekordlåg netto innanlandsk flytting og lågt fødselsoverskot, har dette ført til den låge folkeveksten vi no har hatt siste året i Hordaland. Korleis desse tilhøva slår ut i din kommune og din region, kan du lese meir om i dette nummeret av Hordaland i tal, saman med mykje anna nyttig informasjon om folketalsutviklinga.

Hovudmålet med flaumsonekartlegginga er å få eit betre grunnlag for arealplanlegging, byggjesakshandsaming og beredskap i område utsett for flaum, slik at skadane ved flaum vert redusert. Rapporten presenterer resultat og føresetnader som er gjort ved utarbeiding av flaumsonekart for Eio, Veig og Bjoreio, i Eidfjord kommune i Hordaland. Ein takk til Eidfjord kommune for velvillig innstilling i samband med kontroll av førebels kartmateriale. Oslo, desember 2005 Anne Britt Leifseth Siri Stokseth avdelingsdirektør fung. prosjektleiar Samandrag Rapporten inneheld detaljar kring flaumsonekartlegging for Eidfjordvassdraga Eio, Veig og Bjoreio. Det er laga flaumsoner for 10- og 100-årsflaumen. I tillegg er det gjeve vasshøgder ved 20- 50-, 200- og 500-årsflaumane.

  • Glaciotectonic Structure and Genesis of the Herdla Moraines, Western Norway
    Glaciotectonic structure and genesis of the Herdla Moraines, western Norway JAMES S. ABER & INGE AARSETH Aber, J. S. & Aarseth, 1.: Glaciotectonic structure and genesis of the Herdla Moraines, western Norway. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 68, pp. 99-106. Oslo 1988. ISSN 0029-196X. At its type locality, glaciomarine sediment of the Herdla Moraines was deformed and consolidated by overriding ice. Two phases of moraine development took place in conjunction with ice movement coming first from the east-northeast and later from the southeast. The early phase is related to development of a local ice dome on Stølsheimen during the middle Younger Dryas (about 10,500 BP), when the ice sheet reached its late glacial maximum thickness in the region. The ice sheet then thinned rapidly, due to climatic amelioration and increased calving, and shifted to southeasterly movement at Herdla. Most glaciotectonic disturbance and consolidation of sediment at Herdla happened during this late phase, perhaps as a result of a glacier surge along Herdlafjord. The glaciotectonic structures at Herdla are local in character and cannot be used for regional correlation of glacial advances in western Norway. J. S. Aber, Earth Science Department, Emporia State University, Emporia, Kansas, 66801, USA; l. Aarseth, Universitetet i Bergen, Geologisk Institutt, Avd. B. A/legt, 41. N-5007 Bergen, Norway. Y ounger Dry as moraines of western Norway Aarseth & Mangerud (1974) defined the Herdla Moraines as a morphostratigraphic unit with a type locality at Herdla island (Fig. 1). Sediments of the Herdla Moraines are part of a conspicuous system of ice marginal deposits of Younger Dryas age (10,000-11,000 BP) that has been mapped around the periphery of southern and western Norway (Mangerud et al.
