Kristiansund, the city of flowers and culture, is the capital of Southern Norway, located between the metropolises of Stavanger and Oslo. It is the country's fifth-largest city, a town of commerce, festivals and natural beauty, a city with a rich history, also known as the Klipfish (dried, salted cod) and the opera town. Beautifully situated on four islands at the edge of the ocean, Kristiansund has a spectacular harbor, an intimate, colorful and convivial town that is perfect for day trips. The access to the city center with the fish market "Fiskebrygga" and old town “Posebyen” is easy. During your walk, you will pass a 17th-century fortress, and a public beach.The town has a wide range of attractions such as the Atlantic Road, only 30 min by bus, ranked the world’s best road trip by the British newspaper ‘The Guardian’. The road, 8,3 kms long, zigzags across bridges and skerries, bringing you right out to the edge of the Atlantic Ocean!

Centrally located at the head of Aurlandsfjord, the-17-kms-long tributary of the 204-km-long and up to 1308-m-deep Sognefjord, Flåm is surrounded by snowcapped mountains, isolated farmsteads and waterfalls and offers some of the most popular attractions in Norway, the famous Flåmsbana – the Flåm Railway- which is widely recognized as one of the steepest and most beautiful railways in the world. One of the most dramatic train rides in Europe, the Flåmsbanen takes an hour to cover 12 miles, hugging cliffs, plunging through tunnels and pausing for its passengers to admire the views as it ascends the Flåm Valley to a desolate mountain plateau. Kjosfossen is the waterfall highlight of the Flam Railway. Flåm is also home of the spectacular Nærøyfjord, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

Olden is a village of Stryn, Norway, located on the southern shore of the Nordfjorden. Olden is a major tourist area and its cruise port has many arrivals every year. It’s worth visiting the Briksdalsbreen glacier, a popular hiking destination.

Ålesund is a picturesque fishing port at the mouth of Stor Fjord located between Bergen and Trondheim in the district of Sunnmøre and is the gateway to the surrounding fjords- Geirangefjord and Hjørundfjord- and the stunning Sunnmøre Alps. A massive fire, which burst in 1904, destroyed 800 buildings in this fishing port, which was reborn with the support of Germany's Kaiser Wilhelm II and rebuilt in the then-popular Art Nouveau style, known as Jugendstil. The result is one of the prettiest ports in Norway, boasting llovely buildings with medieval facades, elegant turrets and spires along the streets of the city center. Today, it is still one of Norway's most important fishing harbors and the world's largest supplier of Klipfish - dried cod. Your walk will lead you through Gågata pedstrial way, canalι Brosundet and Aalesunds Museum, while Aksla hill in the heart of the city (a mere 418 step climb if you are feeling mildly energetic!), offers a great panoramic view.
