The 1,382-square-kilometre (534 sq mi) municipality is the 67th largest by area out of the 357 municipalities in Norway. Stryn Municipality is the 140th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of 7,311. The municipality's population density is 5.3 inhabitants per square kilometre (14/sq mi), and its population has increased by 1.9% over the previous 10-year period.[5][6]

Farming, forestry, fruit growing, animal breeding for furs, small manufacturing industries, tourism, and the service trades provide the main occupations. The river Stryneelva enters the village of Stryn from the east after passing through the Stryn Valley, from the large lake Oppstrynsvatn. The Jostedalsbreen National Park Center is on the shore of the lake.

Stryn Municipality has year-round glacier skiing at Stryn Sommerski. It is also the home of the footballer-brothers Tore André Flo, Jarle Flo and Jostein Flo, who grew up in the village of Stryn, as well as their footballing-cousin Håvard Flo who is from the town of Flo.

General information

[edit]

The parish of Indvigen (later spelled "Innvik") was established as Innvik Municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). The original municipality was identical to the Innvik prestegjeld with the parishes (sokn) of Oppstryn, Nedstryn, Loen, Olden, Innvik, and Utvik. In 1843, the large Innvik Municipality was divided into two. The parishes of Loen, Oppstryn, and Nedstryn (population: 2,401) were separated and established as the new Stryn Municipality. The parishes of Olden, Innvik, and Utvik (population: 2,675) continued as a much smaller Innvik Municipality.[7]

On 10 January 1922, the Raksgrenda area (population: 120) was transferred from Innvik Municipality to Stryn Municipality.[7]

During the 1960s, many municipal mergers occurred across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1965, a merger took place, combining the following areas into a new, much larger Stryn Municipality with a population of 7,211.[7]

On 1 January 1977, the parts of the old Hornindal Municipality that were merged into Stryn Municipality in 1965 were transferred back to the newly re-constituted Hornindal Municipality. The population of Stryn Municipality decreased by 1,202 due to this border adjustment.[7]

On 1 January 2019, the Maurset area in the southern part of the neighboring Hornindal Municipality (population: 19) was transferred from Hornindal Municipality to Stryn Municipality.[8]

Historically, this municipality was part of the old Sogn og Fjordane county. On 1 January 2020, the municipality became part of the newly formed Vestland county (after Hordaland and Sogn og Fjordane counties were merged).[9]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally the parish) is likely named after the local river Stryneelva (Old Norse: Strjónar). The name is derived from the word strjónn which means "(strong) stream".[10]

Coat of arms

[edit]

The coat of arms was granted on 11 December 1987. The official blazon is "Vert, a linden branch Or in bend sinister with four leaves" (Norwegian: På grønn grunn ein venstre skråstilt gull lindekvist med fire blad). This means the arms have a green field (background) and the charge is a linden (tilia) branch with four leaves. The charge has a tincture of Or, which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The linden was chosen to represent the vast deciduous forests in the region; the branch represents the main fjord through the municipality; and the four leaves represent the four main village areas along the fjord. Heidi Heggdal designed the arms. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.[11][12][13]

Government

[edit]

Stryn Municipality is responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, welfare and other social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads and utilities.

Location

[edit]

Stryn Municipality is located on the northern border of Vestland county. To the north, Stryn Municipality is bordered by Volda Municipality and Stranda Municipality (in Møre og Romsdal county), to the east is Skjåk Municipality (in Innlandet county), to the southeast is Luster Municipality, to the southwest is Sunnfjord Municipality, and to the west is Gloppen Municipality and Stad Municipality.

Nature

[edit]

Stryn Municipality is known for its scenery, glaciers and the mountains running into the mirroring fjords and lakes. The glacier Briksdalsbreen lies in the Oldedalen valley. The Stryn area also has several other valley glaciers, including Tindefjellsbreen, Tystigsbreen, and Myklebustbreen. Most of the valley glaciers in Stryn Municipality originate from the great Jostedal Glacier between the Nordfjord and Sogn areas.

Ramnefjellsfossen, the third-highest free-falling waterfall in the world, is located in the municipality. Stryn Municipality also has the largest linden forest in Northern Europe. The largest lakes are Oppstrynsvatnet, Lovatnet, and Oldevatnet. The highest point in the municipality is the 2,081.44-metre (6,828.9 ft) tall mountain Lodalskåpa, located on the border with Luster Municipality.[1] The mountains Skåla and Høgstre Breakulen are also located in Stryn.

Jostedal Glacier National Park

[edit]

The Jostedalsbreen National Park has an area of approximately 1,310 square kilometres (510 sq mi). The flora and fauna area is situated between the fjord and the glacier. The museum Jostedalsbreen National Park Center is located in Oppstryn.

Briksdal glacier

[edit]

Visitors from all over the world come to see the Briksdalsbreen glacier outlet, which is situated amid waterfalls and high peaks. Briksdal glacier is a part of the Jostedal Glacier ice field, which is the largest glacier on the European mainland. The highest point of the glacier lies at 1,950 metres (6,400 ft) above sea level, and in some places it measures 400 metres (1,300 ft) in depth. It is located at the end of the Oldedalen valley.

Lodalen–Kjenndalen

[edit]

On two occasions, large rockslides from Ramnefjellet hit the lake below. The resulting flood wave wiped out the settlements of Nesdal and Bødal, killing 135 people.

Wildlife

[edit]

There are many bird species in this area including the golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), rough-legged buzzard (Buteo lagopus), and the white-backed woodpecker (Dendrocopus leucotos). Some of the larger mammals that live in this region are red deer (Cervus elaphus), wolverines (Gulo gulo), and lynxes (Lynx lynx).

Climate

[edit]

Most villages in the municipality are located along the water and have a marine mild winter climate (Cfb in the Köppen classification). Places at further from the water and at higher elevation have either a humid continental climate (Dfb) or a humid subartic climate (Dfc). The highest parts (above ca. 800 m) have a tundra climate.[36][37]

Spring is usually the driest part of the year, with the months of April and May having the least precipitation. Snow cover is unreliable in the lower parts during the winter because of frequent mind-winter melting and rain-on-snow events.[38] There is usually a reliable snow cover for most of the year in the mountains.

Attractions

[edit]

National Tourist Route

[edit]

The Gamle Strynefjellsvegen is a National Tourist Route (Fylkesvei 258). It goes from Grotli (Skjåk Municipality in Innlandet county) to Videseter, where a waterfall is, and on to the village of Stryn (Vestland county).

Stryn Center

[edit]

The village of Stryn, a busy and developing small town at the tip of the most northernly of the three short branches at the inner end of Nordfjorden, is the local government and shopping centre for a large community and the junction of roads which connect inner Nordfjord with the rest of Norway.

Oldedalen Valley

[edit]

The southernmost of the three short branches at the inner end of Nordfjorden terminates at the village of Olden, from which a lovely valley, Oldedalen, goes due south for about 20 kilometres (12 mi) between slopes rising sharply to more than 1,700 metres (5,600 ft) to the edge of the Jostedal Glacier.

Olden has two churches. The Old Olden Church in the village was built in 1759 on the site of a Stave church dating from around 1300. Its pews, doors, and jambs are made from timbers of the Stave church. The "new" Olden Church, a short distance along the valley, was built in 1934 so that the old church could be preserved.

Loen and Lodalen Valley

[edit]

The Loen Skylift is located in Loen, and Hotel Alexandra is a popular tourist retreat. Loen Valley (Lodalen) is a popular attraction, and the Kjenndal Glacier is located at the end of the valley (a branch of the Jostedal Glacier). Much of the upper Loen valley was devastated by two rockfall slides (one in 1905 and one in 1936) that generated huge waves that swept away most of the houses and vegetation. A total of 135 people were killed in these two incidents.

Innvik and Utvik

[edit]

On the southern shore of the Nordfjorden, between Hildaneset and Utvikfjellet, lie the villages of Innvik and Utvik, in the area known as Vikane. The main road (Rv 60) skirts the fjord past Innvik and ascends from Utvik to Utvikfjellet mountain. At Hildaneset, beside the main road, there is a sculpture of Mr. Singer. Mr Singer financed the building of the road.
