Hi Maarten,
A couple of our Köli nappes here in the central Norwegian Caledonides contain inclined/overturned folds that can be followed along strike for at least 80-90 km.
Cheers,
David

Subject: The largest fold nappe?
Dear all,
I am curious what the largest fold nappes in the world are.
The dimension I'm especially interested in is the strike length.
Which is the 'longest' fold nappe?
Cheers,
Maarten Krabbendam
