Eimhjellenis a village in the municipality of Gloppen in Sogn og Fjordane county. It's located in Hyen nor far from Straume, Hjorteset and Solheim In Eimhjellen there lives around 40 people and there is 12 farms. Here is an active agricultural environment with cows, sheeps, pigs and alot of wood. There is also a sawmill, planing mill and carpentry workshop. Many work outside in addition to the farm. The people who live in Eimhjellen are evenly distributed in age. Here we are from 0 years to over 80.

Eimhjellen is in the middle of a beautiful landscape so it is obvious that here is a good starting point for an active outdoor life and good nature experiences. Natural goal is noise lane belonging to the parish; UtigardStøylen overlooking Storefjorden and the surrounding villages, and Gamlestøylen and Vikastøylen located at Rombergvatnet. For those who want to go a little longer there is Varlieggja , Vindalsvatnet and Smølmedalseggja / Blånipa. Many nice destinations.

Many will say that Hyen have only high mountains and deep valleys, but if you come to Eimhjellen you will see that this is not applicable everywhere. In here, the landscape is open and you can let your eyes follow the water to a low horizon southwest. The sun is probably gone behind the mountains for a while in the middle of winter, but in summer is she shining here from the early morning until, well after ten o'clock at night.
