The yearly raids have destroyed Denmark's economic and social fabric, but the lengthy war has also taken its toll in Norway.

Harald has had trouble collecting taxes in the Uplands, and probably also in other areas, since the Battle of Niså.

Fatigue and the huge cost of the indecisive battles eventually lead Harald to seek peace with Sweyn, and in 1064 (or 1065 according to Morkinskinna) the two kings agree on an unconditional peace agreement.

By the agreement, they retain their respective kingdoms with the former boundaries, and there will be no payments of reparations.
