Reasons to visit Alesund

Action Stations

Alesund Strolls

Geiranger Fjord

Meet the ne plus ultra of Norway’s 1,000 fjords. A UNESCO-protected landmark beset by crashing waterfalls and snowy peaks. To kayak through is to be humbled by Mother Nature. Looking for experiences? Walk behind Storseter, a raging waterfall. Stroll the Geiranger Skywalk, a viewing platform suspended 1,500 in the sky. Ride your RIB near the Seven Sisters Waterfall, a colossal cascade that will drench you head to toe.

The Eagle Road

Engineers christened it Ørnevegen (Eagle Road) after the eagles that patrol the highway’s 11 hairpin bends. This mountain road opened in 1955 to connect the clifftop with the fjord 620m down below. Commercial vehicle companies use its 1 in 10 incline to road test cars. While cyclists bomb from the waterfall at the top, down to the sea, in matter of minutes. The views are staggering.

Iconic Lighthouses

Ålesund’s lighthouses have become cultural icons. When Molja Lighthouse became automated, groovy architects Snohetta (designers of Oslo’s Norwegian National Opera House) turned it into a single room hotel. Alnes Lighthouse is now an art gallery and café. Visit by tender - the cakes are excellent. Erkna Lighthouse doubles as a bird sanctuary for eider ducks and sea swallows. With advance permission you may paddleboard in.
