History:
Jordalen takes its name from a sheltered valley bordering Norway's breathtaking Nærøyfjord World Heritage Area. For centuries, local farmers relied on the valley's fertile meadows and surrounding mountain pastures to raise livestock, shaping both the landscape and the community's way of life. The name itself is believed to trace back to an Old Norse word connected to livestock, honoring a region where nature, craftsmanship, and tradition have remained closely intertwined for generations.
