THE FJORDS, ISLANDS & SOUNDS ROUTE
Trip Highlights
Enjoy a wholesome picnic lunch on a lush green island
Wander the Art Nouveau of Old Ålesund
Float through fairytale islands
Description
A CIRCUMNAVAGATION, KEEP ÅLESUND ON YOUR LEFT!
Escape the city! Borgund Fjord, keeping the southern city sights, sounds & smells on our left we paddle its glistening waters, floating through Nørve Sound to the entrance of Ellingsøyfjord with its fairy tale islands. Enjoy a tasty picnic lunch on a lush green island seemingly miles from urbanisation.
Jumping on the water after refueling on a picnic lunch, we head west with Ålesund still on our left to complete our circumnavigation. Passing by the northern harbour, guarded by its 184-year-old navigational beacon and the last remaining buildings of Old Ålesund, we seek out the Asp Island bridge the entrance to Ålesund’s Southern harbour. Our kayaks glide easily through the Southern Harbour, past a 109-year-old historical landmark, and on towards our take-out point.
Finally, the city’s southern skyline chiseled on a seemingly painted backdrop of the majestic Sunnmøre Alps we see our landing site on the banks of Borgund Fjord.
