This is how Northurgatten Fjord looked like 200 years ago. The huge, tall pillars, become successively taller further inland. The deceptively warm but foggy air disguises distances. The picturesque views of natural arches distracts any first-time skipper making his way through the waters, and the unexpected turns in the short, S-shaped fjord became the best defense for the city of Waldihnok. Many treacherous rocks have been cleared, though the famous rule is still in force for modern-day pilots and captains: keep your eyes on the water.
