Solheim

Solheim is a little village west of Hyen. It takes 20-30 minutes by car to get from Hyen to Solheim. Solheim is situated by a big lake called Eimhjellevatnet. Across the lake lies Eimhjellen. There is a lot of fish in the lake, especially a lot of trout. Solheim has many farmers. It is a green place and compared to the surrounding villages, and is a sunny place, thereby its name (meaning "Sun-home"). Solheim had a school until 2009, but it is now closed. The building is used for parties and as a local community house. It takes about 40 minutes to drive to Førde and 40 minutes to Florø.
