==Geography==
[[File:Surnadalsfjorden.jpg|left|thumb|View of the Surnadalsfjorden]]
The municipality is made up by the main Surnadalen valley through which the river [[Surna (Norway)|Surna]] runs. There are also many smaller side valleys including Stor-Bæverdalen, Settemsdalen, Øvstbødalen, [[Todalsøra|Todalen]], and Vinddøldalen. The municipality is bordered by the [[Trollheimen]] mountain range and [[Sunndal Municipality]] to the south, the neighboring [[Rindal Municipality]] to the east, [[Heim Municipality]] to the north, and several fjords to the west: [[Trongfjorden]], [[Stangvikfjorden]], and [[Todalsfjorden]]. There are three main fjords that cut into the municipality: [[Åsskardfjorden]], [[Hamnesfjorden]], and [[Surnadalsfjorden]].

The landscape is a combination of [[forest]]s, [[fjord]]s, and [[mountain]]s. The highest mountain peak is [[Snota]] at {{convert|1668|m}} above sea level.<ref name="elev" /> Other mountains include [[Vassnebba]], [[Indre Sula]] and [[Ytre Sula]], [[Neådalssnota]], and [[Trollhetta]]. The river [[Surna (Norway)|Surna]] runs through the valley from the east to the west, and forms a large [[River delta|delta]] where it enters the fjord near [[Surnadalsøra]] and [[Skei, Møre og Romsdal|Skei]]. This river is rich in [[salmon]], which attract tourists from the rest of the country and abroad. The lakes [[Foldsjøen]] and [[Gråsjøen]] lie along the border with [[Rindal Municipality]] in the east. The [[Grønkjølen Nature Reserve]] lies in the extreme northeast of the municipality.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Grønkjølen |url=http://faktaark.naturbase.no/Vern?id=VV00000494 |access-date=August 7, 2017 |publisher=Mijlø-direktoratet}}</ref>
