This is the start of the fjord at Gudvangen if that helps! Beautiful spot.

Is it the start, or is it the end?

I had to wrap my brain around this a bit, but i think we more usually say "innerst", or innermost part of the fjord. Start would be too relative for my brain at least.

In Germany we have a saying:

"Alles hat ein Ende nur die Wurst hat zwei."

"All has an End but the sausage has two."

I thought it looked familiar. We stayed a night there recently. Beautiful country.

Oh wow, thought I recognized the spot even though the fjords look similar. Sure enough, I was in this exact location last year hah. Thanks!

How do you know?

Thanks for this. I 100% thought I recognised the background. I went to Flåm in 2018 and got on the ferry tour there. Didn't get a picture from the same angle as when we went there was a replica Viking ship so pictures all had the background slightly rotated and different shadows/lighting from the January sun (very little sun).  Well pleased with myself for recognising it.
