Frequently Asked Questions
At the Tindekaia quay, right in the town centre. The railway station, the cable car and the shops are all a five- to ten-minute walk away. No shuttle is needed.
No. Åndalsnes has barely a thousand residents around the harbour and the whole centre is walkable from the gangway. Taxis and coaches are only needed for excursions up the Romsdalen valley and to the Trollstigen.
It is the rail line running 114 km up the Romsdalen valley to Dombås, crossing 32 bridges and six tunnels. Excursion trains cover its most spectacular section: the track clings to the valley walls, crosses the turquoise river on the Kylling stone bridge and runs past the Trollveggen. The station sits next to the quay.
Yes, and it is the fastest outing of the call. The Romsdalsgondolen leaves from the town centre, steps from the quay, and climbs to the summit of Nesaksla, 708 m above the fjord. At the top: a terrace, a panoramic restaurant, the fjord on one side and the valley on the other.
One big choice decides the day: the Rauma Railway or the cable car. Doing both is tight depending on schedules. The cable car leaves time for the Norwegian Mountaineering Centre and a stroll through town; the train takes up most of a morning or afternoon.
Yes, on a coach excursion: eleven hairpin bends over 18 km up to a pass close to 700 m, with viewing platforms projecting over the drop. Be aware the road only opens in the warm season and demand often exceeds available seats. Check the ship's offering early.
It is the highest vertical rock face in Europe, in the Romsdalen valley a few kilometres from the port, and it draws climbers from around the world. You see it from the Rauma Railway, from road excursions and, on a clear day, from the summit of Nesaksla.
The Norwegian Mountaineering Centre, right by the landing stage, is made for it: exhibits on climbing history in Romsdal, accounts of the first ascents of the Trollveggen, and the country's tallest indoor climbing wall. Weather turns quickly here, so pack rain gear even under a clear sky.
Yes. The cable car takes minutes and impresses at any age, the indoor climbing wall at the Mountaineering Centre keeps older kids busy, and the town centre is easy walking. The long ridge hikes, on the other hand, are not suitable for young children.
The Norwegian krone (NOK), and cards are accepted everywhere, even for small amounts. Norwegian is the local language but English is widely spoken in shops and on excursions. There is no need to get cash before the call.
