Halsanaustan: Halsa ferjekai

Built around a landing place on Halsafjorden, Halsanaustan grew into a coastal stop on the Halsa–Kanestraum ferry route. The small settlement lies in Heim, on the northern shore of the fjord, where road travel and sea crossings still shape connections across Nordmøre. The ferry links Halsa with Kanestraum on the opposite shore and forms part of the E39 route. Nearby Halsa Church, a wooden cruciform church built in 1724, reflects the area’s long parish tradition. Forested slopes meet the water around the settlement, while the fjord leads toward Norway’s wider coastal district. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Trøndelag.

Trøndelag occupies a broad coastal and inland region in central Norway. Trondheim Fjord reaches deep into the land, linking farming districts, wooded hills and settlements around Trondheim, the region’s historic and cultural centre. The city was an important medieval pilgrimage destination and is home to Nidaros Cathedral, Norway’s national sanctuary and one of the country’s foremost Gothic monuments. Farther inland, valleys and upland areas lead towards the Scandinavian Mountains, while the coast breaks into islands, channels and sheltered bays.

Norway has served as a seafaring link between the North Atlantic and northern Europe since the Viking Age. Its long coastline is cut by fjords, while the Lofoten archipelago rises sharply from the Norwegian Sea and the mountains of Jotunheimen include Galdhøpiggen, Norway’s highest peak. 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.
