Innfjorden[3] is a village in Rauma Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is situated about 10 kilometres (6.2mi) southwest of the town of Åndalsnes and 9 kilometres (5.6mi) southeast of the village of Måndalen along the European Route E136 highway. The road from Åndalsnes to Innfjorden goes through the 6,594-metre (21,634ft) long Innfjord Tunnel, which opened in 1991 after a series of deaths caused by avalanches on the former road along the shore of Romsdal Fjord.
The 0.28-square-kilometre (69-acre) village had a population (2022) of 260 and a population density of 929 inhabitants per square kilometre (2,410/sqmi). Since 2022, the population and area data for this village area has not been separately tracked by Statistics Norway.[1] The local economy is mainly based on agriculture, while there is some industry and a few service companies relating to tourism, transportation, and road safety. In addition there is an elementary school, kindergarten, and the small Innfjorden Chapel.
Surrounding Innfjorden are 1,200-to-1,800-metre (3,900 to 5,900ft) tall peaks on the east, south, and west sides with Romsdal Fjord to the north. The area is frequented by mountain hikers and lately a lot of BASE jumpers have discovered the mountains around Innfjorden.
