One stormy winter night in 1904, a fire raged through
Ålesund. By morning, 850 houses were in ruins and more than
10,000 people were homeless. In the course of a record-breaking three
years, the town rose from the ashes. This is how Ålesund
became an art nouveau city with a rare architectural expression.
The guide will meet you on the quay and take you on a short walk
through the city centre before visiting and touring Jugendstilsenteret
(the Art Nouveau Centre). Stroll back to your Havila Kystruten ship.

Ørnesvingene to the lookout point with a panoramic view of
the Geirangerfjord with the "The Seven Sisters" waterfalls, the village

The road continues on through well-maintained agricultural villages,
and we take a local ferry across the fjord to Valldal, the strawberry
village. There we stop at the wild river rapids at Gudbrandsjuvet
before climbing the mountains on our way to the top of Trollstigen.
This is an old trail that has miraculously become a road with 11
hairpin bends down the steep mountainside.
Viewpoints in rough and modern architecture give you a panorama of the
road builders' skill as engineers, and the largest viewpoint platform
floats 200 metres above the road.

permanent residents.
About 50 years ago, the village of Urke had 350 inhabitants. Now there
are barely 50 left. They have more than enough of both space and
nature, and are happy to share it with whoever comes to visit.
The walk takes you through the village, and its varied business life,
even if it has few inhabitants. Here you can find fish farming,
horticulture and a small store owned by the villagers who also
participate in it’s operation on a voluntary basis. The river
through the village has given power to grind grain in the old days and
an old mill house tells that history while a modern power plant
provides power to 2000 households tells the modern story of the river.

a bridge and the old gate through the glass bottom of the canoe. The
place is popular for divers, and with a glass kayak you get to take

With their beautiful mountains, Hjørundfjorden and

and celebrities. Norangsdalen is said to have been visited by seven
queens, and the narrow road that winds its way under the steep
mountains is often called the queen’s route.
Here you cycle on a rural road with little traffic giving you plenty of
time to admire thewild mountains and traces of the ravages of nature.
You can also see the small farmhouses, built wall to wall and almost
into the ground, to withstand the avalanches in the area. In
Lyngstøylvatnet you can see the remains of the old road, the
foundations of the farmhouses and the gateway that is now submerged in
the crystal clear water after the mountainside collapsed in a landslide
in 1908, closed off the valley and dammed up the river.

At the top of the mountains there is always snow and big and small
glaciers, the largest of which is Svartisen, northern Scandinavia's
largest glacier. The Svartisen (Black Ice) Glacier got its name not
because it is so black, but because it is so blue! The deep blue colour
of the ice contrasts with the fresh white snow drifts, and so the ice
appears black.

at the snowmobile garage in Mehamn, where we change back into our own
clothes, before the bus takes us the last few hundred metres via the
centre back to the ship. Warm layers are recommended. Snowmobile suits,
shoes, gloves and helmets will be ready for you. You must have a
