Aro: Årødalen
Årø (Aro) lies in Årødalen, a low wooded valley shaped by the rolling hills and coastal terrain of Møre og Romsdal. Route 64 runs through this settled corridor on the eastern side of Molde, where business premises, local roads and open grassy verges meet patches of woodland. Molde Airport, Årø serves the city and surrounding district, giving the area a practical role in regional travel. The setting belongs to the wider Romsdal coast, a landscape of fjords, islands and mountain ranges. Cultural life is close at hand in Molde, host of the annual Moldejazz festival since 1961, while Årø itself has the more everyday character of a transport and employment area.
