Travel like the locals (Møre og Romsdal) Adventures at Valsøya

Adventures at Valsøya

Molde - Valsøya - Molde If you are in Molde, the many adventures at Valsøya is just a bus ride away! The bus trip from Molde goes along the beautiful Fannefjord, then over the Fursetfjellet mountain pass to Batnfjorden and further on to the magnificent Gjemnessund bridge, a suspension bridge that was opened in 1992 and which was the longest suspension bridge in Norway at the time. (Today, the Hardanger bridge is the longest, while the Askøy bridge has the longest single suspension.) A ferry ride from Kanestraum to Halsa is also included in the trip. On the ferry, you can stretch your legs and – if you are so inclined – buy a “svele”, a sort of pancake that is a local delicasy which “everyone” buys when they take a ferry trip. When you reach Valsøya you can explore the world of the tree tops in the Høyt & Lavt (High & Low) climbing park. If you want a less airy activity, you can take a hike along the beautiful fjord, rent a kayak and paddle between small islets and rocks, swim at the tiny beach, enjoy delicious food at the Saltrøfjøset restaurant, or enjoy an ice cream in the scenic environment. The restaurant is open daily from 13.00 to 19.00 in the booking period for this trip. The climbing park is open daily in the school summer holiday from 10.00 to 16.30 with entrance slots at 10.00, 10.30, 13.00 or 13.30. Ticket must be bought beforehand online at https://hoytlavt.no/valsoya/billetter/. Note! Entrance to the climbing park or other activities is not included in the price for this trip.

Follow the road 30 m upwards and cross the road. The start of the path is marked with a red T. Follow the ridge upwards until the terrain becomes flatter and you can see a little pond. Turn right around a protruding rock and then continue upwards along a route marked with cairns. Approx. 100 m after the protruding rock, the path goes right - crossing an area of bare rock, and then upwards through a scree slope. Keep right up another ridge, and then keep right at the next large scree slope. Then the path follows the ridge upwards, slightly turning right. When you reach the lake, you can continue upwards to a picnic area by some big rocks. Suggested hike 2: Alnessteinen (the Alnes Rock) Difficulty: medium (suitable for anyone in good shape who are used to follow a marked path) Duration: approx 1 hour each way (a total of 2 hours active walking to go there and back) The hike starts approx. 10 minutes by foot from the Trollstigen plateau in the direction of Valldal. Follow the road towards Valldal until you see signs to Alnessteinen on the left side of the road. From the start, the path goes along the river and then continues towards a lake. After approx. 300 meters, the path can be a little diffuse, but shortly after it becomes easy to see and follow all the way to Alnesvatnet lake. From the Alnesvatnet lake follow the path that goes along the left side of the Alnes valley. After a short upwards slope you will see a large rock on the right which is a nice picnic spot.
