Rangoynes: The Atlantic Road Cabins - Utheimselva - Lille Lauvøysundet - Atlantic Ocean Road
Built around a sheltered shore on the Norwegian Sea, Rangøyneset grew into a small coastal settlement. It lies beside the Atlantic Ocean Road, the 8.3-kilometre route completed in 1989 to link the island of Averøy with the mainland across a chain of islets and eight bridges. This part of Møre og Romsdal is defined by low islands, narrow sounds and an ocean-facing coast. Lille Lauvøysundet and the Utheimselva form part of the local waterscape, while The Atlantic Road Cabins provide shore-side accommodation. The road is one of Norway’s National Tourist Routes, valued for engineering that follows the contours of this exposed coastal terrain.

Møre og Romsdal has been a coastal crossroads in western Norway since the Viking Age. Stretching from the Norwegian Sea to deep fjords and rugged inland valleys, the county includes the UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord and the dramatic Romsdalsfjord. Ålesund is known for its distinctive Art Nouveau townscape, rebuilt after the fire of 1904, while Molde faces a broad sweep of fjord and mountains. Fishing, shipbuilding and maritime travel remain central to local life, alongside farming in sheltered coastal and valley communities. The Atlantic Ocean Road is another defining route, linking islands and skerries along the exposed coast. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Møre og Romsdal.

Bergen’s Bryggen, the former Hanseatic wharf, recalls centuries of maritime trade. Farther north, Sámi culture remains an essential part of the country’s identity.
