The Fjord horse - a symbol of Norway. Njål from Oppstryn in Nordfjord is reckoned to be the common ancestor of all today's Fjord horses both in Norway and abroad. Fjord horses are renowned for their good temper and for being good working horses. They are undemanding, have great stamina and are much used nowadays for recreational purposes.
