Tysso

Tysso is a village located in the Vestland county of Norway. It is situated in the municipality of Kinn. The village lies on the northern side of the Nordfjord, a major fjord in western Norway. Tysso is known for its picturesque setting, surrounded by mountains and the waters of the fjord.

The area has a history of settlement dating back to ancient times, with evidence of farming and fishing communities. Historically, Tysso, like many coastal settlements in Norway, was reliant on the sea for its livelihood. Fishing and maritime trade played significant roles in the local economy for centuries.

In more recent times, Tysso has seen a shift in its economic activities. While fishing may still be present, tourism has become an increasingly important sector. The natural beauty of the Nordfjord region attracts visitors for hiking, boating, and experiencing the Norwegian coastal landscape. Infrastructure in Tysso includes local roads connecting it to surrounding areas and the wider road network. Basic amenities and services are available to residents and visitors. The community is relatively small, reflecting the characteristic settlement patterns of many rural Norwegian villages.
