The region of Østfold in south-east Norway stretches along the eastern side of the Oslofjord all the way to the Swedish border. Visit charming towns and villages like Sarpsborg, where you can see prehistoric rock carving sites and feel the spray from the majestic Sarpefossen waterall, and Fredrikstad, one of the best preserved fortified towns in Northern Europe, where there is a vibrant cultural life.
