Åndalsnes: Isfjorden - Shooting Isfjorden - Søre Klauva - Kyrkjetaket
Tucked along Isfjorden, Åndalsnes is a place whose character is shaped by the steep mountains of Romsdalen. Isfjorden forms an arm of Romsdalsfjorden, with settled shorelines lying beneath a rugged chain of summits. Kyrkjetaket is among the best-known peaks above the fjord and a popular destination for mountain walks, while Søre Klauva belongs to the same dramatic highland setting. A short distance south, Åndalsnes is the terminus of the Rauma Line, the railway that follows the Rauma valley from Dombås. The town is also a base for exploring Romsdalen’s hiking routes, climbing terrain and fjord-side communities.

Åndalsnes combines the scale of a small fjord town with a bold mountain setting in a way that reflects its position at the mouth of the Rauma River, beside Isfjorden in Romsdalen. The town is the northern terminus of the Rauma Line, which follows the Rauma valley from Dombås and has made rail travel part of the area’s identity. The Romsdalseggen ridge rises above the settlement, and the Rampestreken platform on its lower slopes is a familiar goal for walkers. E136 also passes through Åndalsnes, linking it by road with inland Norway and Ålesund.
