The most northerly of the Western Fjord counties, More og Romsdal is a land of rich and rugged terrain, including steep mountains, rolling valleys, many islands, some of the country’s longest waterfalls and, of course, the deep fjords that make the area so famous. Geirangerfjord, one of Norway’s most visited fjords, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and home to the spectacular Brudesløret (Bride’s Veil) and De Syv Søstrene (The Seven Sisters) waterfalls. Picturesque Alesund is the county capital.

We arrived to Kristiansund in the early evening and stopped here on the way to our hotel - 5 minutes away. You park the car in the street and go up a path - a few hundred meters to the top of the hill. The small Varden tower looks like a small lighthouse. You go up 2 short flight of steps and get a great view of all Kristiansund (built on 3 islands) and the ocean. It's free and well worth the visit if in the city.
Golleneset Lighthouse flashes welcome! A very short walk in easy terrain from the parking takes you to the open sea at the Lighthouse. You will be passing Kjemperøysa, a 17 m large burial mound, - 3500 years old. Perfect conditions to enjoy the sun and the sea. On a stormy day the sea is making salty sea foam in large quantities between the rocks. Be aware of the waves!
Havlandet - the land of the waves! Visit Runde - the southernmost bird island in Norway with puffins and eagles. Sip the sparkling salty winds. Enjoy breathtaking sunsets, and bridges. Hike. Dive. Bicycle. Go fishing. Relax. Let the waves mesmerize you. You will be at the outer edge of Norway. Dating the endless horizon, listening to the song of the sea, collecting memories for a lifetime.
